The 6102's have a date code of 4775, and the latest data code I saw was
0176.

When I talked to her today, she indicated her late husband had declined an
offer to donate it to the Boston Computer Museum. I've relayed what
knowledge I have about what it might be worth, and I rather suspect it may

bring <sigh>.) FWIW, it is not mine <another sigh>.
