New subject: Univac 9200 (Was Re: Altair, pfeh! I own a Univac.)

4 May 1999

Well, okay, parts of one.  Big parts.

For now it is in storage.  Guess I have to get a basement next.

I'm not even sure exactly what I've got.  It is from a Univac 9200.
Looks like a line printer and control console in one very big box,
about the size of desk, but maybe twice as tall.  Switches & lights,
and discrete transistors.  It was the box that had the "Univac 9200"
label on it, so maybe (hopefully) it is the CPU.  When I move it
...
 from its current temporary home to a more permanent
one, I'll get pix & details.

There is another box that I didn't get, but may still end up with
after its winner picks a few bits out of it.  Seems _he_ actually
has customers still running these things, and needs a few specific
parts.  So even if I get it, it won't be complete.  But I can't
complain, with those parts going to keep another Univac running.

Also got a card punch, which I got home by partially disassembling
it, to make it fit in my car.  When I opened it up, I found a three
ring binder labelled "Univac Servicing Documents" - schematics,
mech drawings, all sorts of good stuff!

So, anybody know anything about 9200's?  A web search didn't turn
up much.  Introduced in June 1967, 8K of memory, that's about it.
