Maybe. It's kinda big though. About a
30" cube. Ugly too, it looks
kind of like a car that's been crushed.

Well, then it's probably from the government. There's not too much
pretty
stuff from the government (going in and coming out). It would be
interesting to see what's on those HD's. If it doesn't' have a monitor,
it
could have been some type of mainframe.

I'm not sure about the model, but you mentioned that it was by Harris.
I just recently saw a "Harris" server and stations here in Toronto. There
were no doc's with it. There must have been at least 8 stations for it.
I accidently got the keyboard in a pile of stuff so if the person who
picked it up is looking for it and is on the list! I've got it for you.
It seems to be, to my limited knowledge, a VM system. I would have picked
it up because it was so friggen ugly (I buy old stuff for looks as much as
for what it is-I know I'm shallow), but unless I used the stations to hold
up my mattress, I'd have nowhere to put it. Hey, know theres an idea..
Larry, did you buy it?

Hey, now. Some of us have a soft spot in their hearts for Harris Mini's.
:^) The first _Real_ computer I ever used was a Harris. Of course I'd been
using a Vic-20 for about 5 years prior to that.

Nope, I've already got the TRS 80 8" HDDs and some 5150s holding up my
mattress. What I need is some kip-bags for clothes since the rapidly rising
wall of puter stuff has buried my dresser (never really liked the thing anyway)
I did pick up a mint Apple IIc . No power supply tho. Anyone on the list got
one they want to part with ?
There is a comp.sys.harris news-group. Nothing in it when I looked. Don't know
if there's a FAQ.
If they were all gone we've got some SERIOUS collecting competition out there.
Maybe the same guy that scooped the 6 Rainbows.
I for one am all for the Ebay phenomina. If it keeps up I can sell my
collection and retire to Florida with the proceeds, where, according to Joe,
the real bargoons are. In pallet-sized lots.
