Supercomputers, fishing for information

[Plamen Mihaylov]

All other tapes are far beyond repair, they are physically damaged
I double checked what I have been able to dump successfully:

iPSC/860 Extensions Software R3.3
iPSC/860 Extensions Software R3.3.1
iPSC/860 Optional Software R3.3.1

There were two more tapes - fortran compilers and forge software - also
damaged.
In case you are interested I've uploaded the dumps afterpeople.com/i860

I hope I've been useful.
