My weekend DEC haul...

Hello, all:

        I was able to score the following from Temple Univ. on Friday. There is still
a load of stuff for older machines, and older machines themselves (such as a
load of 11/23s, a handful of 11/40s, two 11/34s, plenty of RL01s, monitors,
printers, etc. Too much to report...and I didn't even have time to get to the
"documents" room, where they had software and manuals for all of the hardware.
I spent over 4 hours there and didn't even scratch the surface. I'll be going
back in early-October to get more stuff.

        Here's what I got:

        1 DEC 6' 19" rack with 30a power controller
        1 MultiTech modem rack and 2 DEC communications servers.
                The rack is filled with 10 2400-baud modems.
        2 DECMate terminals minus keyboards :-( maybe next time.
        1 EPROM programmer/IC tester (no disk; bummer)
        - Miscellaneous cables
        1 RD52 hard drive; bad power supply

        and the grandaddy of them all: A working VAXstation I. Hadrware/software
unknown at this time, although I can identify a console port, an Ethernet AUI
port, and 12 serial ports.

        Now, I have a shopping list for my next trip, and I need to see the docs and
software room.

        Time to play...
