FS: IBM RT minicomputer

FOR SALE: ** RSVP by January 8 **

Two IBM RT 115 minicomputers.
I still have to ascertain the amount of RAM in them, but here are the rest
of the specifications of what there is forsale:

2 RT keyboards
2 monochrome console monitors
2 hard drives (probably SCSI?) (probably 300 - 500 meg each)
1 1/4 inch cartridge tape drive
2 controller cards for the tape drive
2 5 1/4 floppy drives
1 16 port concentrator box (by Dickens Data Systems)
1 card and cable for the above concentrator box

Note that these computers are both assembled and still working. I do NOT have
the manuals (although I MAY be able to get some). I also do NOT have the
operating system disks.

One computer is running a version of AIX unix (for RTs) - probably one of the
lastest ones since the company was very diligent about OS upgrades.

The other computer is running a version of the PICK operating system called
PICK BLUE.

I am asking $50 for both of them (or best offer if more than one person
replies by January 8). I don't suggest asking me to ship them anywhere as
they weigh a ton! with huge 800 W power supplies.

If I don't get any offers by January 8, I will contact some computer museums;
if they don't want them, then they are going in the garbage.
