Most people will remember that we had a load of VAX Stations going begging a while ago.
Well, another opportunity has arisen for me to dispose of quite a bit of PDP-11 systems, cards, peripherals, media (but a few caveats with this) - and a few errant VAX machines that avoided the last give away!
All of this equipment is currently located in the Gloucester area for pick-up only. But, if it is a small amount of equipment you want and I know you, I could be persuaded to hold on to it for you and/or drop it off somewhere more convenient.
I will be inventorying the equipment presently (probably next week for the separate cards) and start posting the lists on this thread. First come, first served!
I will look at the complete systems later on.
I will probably have to keep hold of one of our systems to 'scrub' the media before I let that go. As with the previous VAXs - I kept hold of the disks and erased them before forwarding them on to people who wanted them.
I will have to sort out the 'paperwork' before letting things go from my end.
As previously, no money is required for the equipment - but a suitable donation to the Company Charity "Prostate Cancer UK" would be welcome.
Please don't inundate me with requests for equipment in the short term. I will post the inventory first and then happy to take PMs for whatever you want from the list and (most important to me) when you would be able to pickup from the Gloucester area!
Regards,
Dave
