Yes John, this is one of the pet peeves some of us have who are hunting for
obscure info like this. I'd found this mindspring site recently through one
of the metasearch engines called "Dogpile" (Dogpile??? Why the heck that
name?) set to 'IBM 1130'.
Looking again today on Dogpile, several different Computerwoche pages from
1975-77 magazine issues and a Brazilian page come up which may have photos

Also, a page of 1130 comments is at
<
http://www.awa.com/softlock/mrr/mycomp/ibm1130.htm>.
This fellow's page has some anecdotal memories, four photos and some op
codes he recalled (wish the h*** I could remember stuff like that after
even 25 _days_!): <

Seems these metasearch engines can dig a bit deeper and root out the Good
Stuff (tm)! :-) :-) I have to stop this now as I'm wasting too much time.
Takes too dang long checking all these hits using a 48k bps copper connection.

I wonder if any of the webpage owners found in this search may know of
something 1130 laying about at a college or company?
Regards, Chris
Can't get over that Dogpile name :)
