IBM 360 with additional era equipment

OH my god. It almost looks complete. I've never seen such a complete lot.

If the LCM is expressing interest in that, I'm sure as hell out. The budget of the average EE is no match for a billionaire.

If it's still located in Gastonia, NC, I'm only about a 40 minute drive away...

Thanks FoothillsGeek, I have deleted the messages - Open for business again.

IBIS, it sounds like you might've missed my private message(s).

Vintage Computer Federation, which is the 501c3 non-profit that owns this forum, has its own hands-on computer museum in New Jersey. It is open to the public several days per week and we specialize in restorations and live demonstrations. We would be very glad to adopt the 360. Please contact me privately to discuss this: evan@vcfed.org

Thank you.

Evan, he already stated the seller is not interested in donating it to a museum. They want money.
You're going to have to PM him an offer just like everyone else.

Do you have a better contact, such as email? Feel free to contact me via PM or kylevowen at gmail dot com. I'd love to see such a 360 stay here in the southeast.

Thanks,

Kyle

and when it shows up in Seattle, we'll know who

[Chuck(G)]

Yup.

Still, it's sure to be well-taken care of. Nice to see a more-or-less complete system after all these years.
