Hi Guys,
Today me and my brother (truck driving license, no interest in old
iron) had the biggest haul of DEC stuff I ever had (ex-collector
moving to a smaller apartment). I'm picking up a second load in a week
or two. Pictures at
http://www.flickr.com/photos/7816395 at N04/sets/72157630422540146/
A quick inventory:
PDP stuff:
- PDP 11/44
- PDP 11/84
- 3 x RL02
- Professional 325
- Professional 350
VAX stuff:
- 12 x BA213/BA440 pedestal VAX systems (MV3400, VAX 4000/200,300,500A, ...)
- 3 x R400X storage pedestal
- 3 x R215F storage pedestal
- 47 x pizzabox VAX systems (MV3100, VAXstation 4000, Infoserver 150, ...)
- 22 x pizzabox storage expansion
- 4 x lunchbox VAX systems (MV/VAXserver/VAXstation 2000)
- 11 x lunchbox storage expansion
MIPS stuff:
- DECsystem 5400 (pedestal)
- 2 x Personal DECstation 5000/25
- DECstation 2100
- DECstation 5000/133
- DECstation 5000/200
Alpha stuff:
- 2 x DEC3000
Miscellaneous stuff:
- VAXmate PC500 w/RCD31 expansion box
- 2 x HSZ40
- 18 x StorageWorks BA350
- 6 x StorageWorks BA353
- DECNIS 600 w/ DNSAN, DNSAM,W614/618,L602
- 5 x DECserver 700
- 3 x DECserver 200/MC
- LANbridge 200
- Lots of DEChub stuff
- Lots of manuals, cables, spare cards, spare disks, etc...
I need to remind people not to send any more donations for the next
few months while I sort this stuff out. I won't keep it all, so I'll
probably post some messages here in the next few months to sell or
give away some of it. Some of it may have to end up in the bin
eventually (like storage expansion boxes with broken drives)
Does anyone here have any experience with the Professional systems and
the VAXmate? I believe the latter is an 8086 system, is that correct?
Would the DECNIS stuff still be of use to anyone?
Cheers,
Camiel

Huh? Well. The OP wasn't specific about what models of pizza boxen
were acquired, but if you can talk him out of any one of the
VAXstation-4000 series, they'd do you very well. The -90 is quite fast.
The -60, not so much, but it's still a good performer. They both pull
very little power.
Lacking that, a 3100-m76 is a decent machine, and made of SERIOUS
METAL...you could drop it, park a car on it, do whatever and it just
won't care. Very different from the plastic chassis that followed that
model line.

Does anyone here have any experience with the Professional systems and
I know the Pro series pretty well; I used to sell and service them.
They are pretty well-understood amongst many people on this list. You
won't have trouble getting Pro help here.
the VAXmate? I believe the latter is an 8086 system,
is that correct?
Yes, it's basically a PC.

Cool. I recognised the DECnis before I even read the listing. I never
held on to
a 600 (too big ...) when I left the development group, but I did hang on
to the
smaller DECnis 500. Some DEChub gear too.
A very nice haul.

Wow, that's a lot of toys! I'm glad you were able to save it.
On a side note, I was expecting a much bigger truck from the description.
Around these parts a truck driving license is only required for the
biggest on the road vehicles, like an 18 wheeler. This is a picture of my
sunny day truck:

Hyundai/Daewoo/Kiah crew cab forward control trucks!!!

Wow, nice! I had a Unimog 404S (radio box version) for several years.
I sold it when I fell on hard times. I miss it; it was lots of fun,
even though I am by no means the "outsoorsy" type.

In the Netherlands, the regular "B" driving license suffices for
vehicles with a maximum permissible weight of 3.5 metric tonnes (~
7,700 pounds). The max. weight for this van is 4.6 metric tonnes
(~10,100 pounds), which means it requires a truck ("C") driving
license. I believe we kind of loaded it to (if not over) the max (had
about 4 inches of clearance between the road and the bottom of the
bars under the van).
Nice!

I have now built a Grey Wall of VAX (Not manuals ;-). Pictures

I also took a more thorough inventory of the VAX systems. Where I list

- 2 x VAXserver 4000/300
- 2 x VAX 4000/500A
- 1 x VAX 4000/600
BA42 VAXen
- 5 x MicroVAX 3100/? (BA42-A)
- 5 x MicroVAX 3100/? (BA42-B)
- 4 x MicroVAX 3100/40
- 3 x MicroVAX 3100/80

Write me down for one of those, if you please. Brings back memories
when I was doing an internship at Digital here in the Netherlands
and that was my `own' machine at the office.

Awesome. You generated the new definition for a "grey wall".
I must state that I have never seen that much of dec-stuff in one place
here in Austria. At least not in hobbyists hands...
I would gladly take one or two of the vax units or a RL02 drive but am a
bit too far away, shipping costs must be killing for that heavy kind of
stuff.

A quick inventory:
PDP stuff:
- PDP 11/44
- PDP 11/84
- 3 x RL02
- Professional 325
- Professional 350
VAX stuff:
- 12 x BA213/BA440 pedestal VAX systems (MV3400, VAX 4000/200,300,500A,
...)
- 3 x R400X storage pedestal
- 3 x R215F storage pedestal
- 47 x pizzabox VAX systems (MV3100, VAXstation 4000, Infoserver 150, ...)
- 22 x pizzabox storage expansion
- 4 x lunchbox VAX systems (MV/VAXserver/VAXstation 2000)
- 11 x lunchbox storage expansion
MIPS stuff:
- DECsystem 5400 (pedestal)
- 2 x Personal DECstation 5000/25
- DECstation 2100
- DECstation 5000/133
- DECstation 5000/200
Alpha stuff:
- 2 x DEC3000
Miscellaneous stuff:
- VAXmate PC500 w/RCD31 expansion box
- 2 x HSZ40
- 18 x StorageWorks BA350
- 6 x StorageWorks BA353
- DECNIS 600 w/ DNSAN, DNSAM,W614/618,L602
- 5 x DECserver 700
- 3 x DECserver 200/MC
- LANbridge 200
- Lots of DEChub stuff
- Lots of manuals, cables, spare cards, spare disks, etc...
I need to remind people not to send any more donations for the next
few months while I sort this stuff out. I won't keep it all, so I'll
probably post some messages here in the next few months to sell or
give away some of it. Some of it may have to end up in the bin
eventually (like storage expansion boxes with broken drives)
Does anyone here have any experience with the Professional systems and
the VAXmate? I believe the latter is an 8086 system, is that correct?
Would the DECNIS stuff still be of use to anyone?
Cheers,
Camiel

Hi Camiel,
Great find!
In the picture of the LA120, what monitor is behind it? It seems to
have a light pen, but doesn't look like a VR14 ot 17.
Thanks, Paul

That's a VAXmate isn't it?

I thought that was a floppy drive, not a light pen.

Your stack which contains the cisco switches and the monitor Paul
anderson asked about has a cardboard box on the deck at the bottom of
the pile. My experience is this is not an optimum way to stack such
things, Hopefully it won't collapse and knock out any other piles.

I'd agree with you if it weren't for a little bit of special
knowledge; that box has some big power supply bricks in it that snugly
fit all three dimensions of the box.

Camiel.
It was the biggest 'new' DEC collection in our small country..;P
I've visited Fred a few times in the past, before I focused on HP and
released all me DEC stuff.
At that time about 6-7 years ago, he was trying to sell his collection
because he wanted to move to the USA to start a business there..
