Symbolics 3620 Alive - Hooray...

Hooray -- I managed to get the Symbolics 3620 up and alive after carefully
checking everything that I could (shorts etc).

It just happily created a million-element binary tree with hordes of
garbage collections. Other than a bit of noise coming from one of the disk
drives it seems OK.

The enormous Symbolics 3650 is, however, another story. I did power it up
and only get a blank screen -- the thing draws six amps at 120VAC and
sounds like a hurricane when it is running... A bit more work will be needed.

My office mates are beginning to wonder...

Regards to all...
