If you're in South Eastern Pennsylvania, Kennett Classic is open; lean and
mean and I suppose and a 50th of the LCM but open nonetheless (by
appointment).  The sign on the door reads "No shoes, no shirt, no mask- no
service.  I was there all day today.

Currently working to decipher some Honeywell DDP-516 papertapes there, core
memory on a PDP 8e, stuff like that.  Finished repairs on a customer's
C-64's.  Visitors are welcome, kennettclassic.com.
