Greetings everyone on both lists:
I have a lead on a microvax near Birmingham, UK. All items in good, working
condition unless marked "not checked".
I am interested in people's comments, but the person to make offers, answer
queries, etc. is Martin Poole, martin.poole_at_pgen.com
Closing date for tenders Noon (British Summer Time) 12 July 1999.
System:
Microvax 3300/3400 Computer System
32Mb MOS memory, 3*381Mb DSSI ISE, Std Kbd., Mono Term. Expansion Cab, ?"
Cartridge Tape Drive
Spare Microvax 3400 Computer System (backup m/c.) (Not checked)
Printers and peripherals:-
LA324 -AE 24 pin Dot Matrix Printer (Three off)
LA210 -A3 Letterprinter (Three off)
Oki Microline 393C 24 pin Dot Matrix Printer (Three off, of which two not
checked)
Assorted tapes and ribbons for above
The machines are now decommissioned but were in continuous use from new in 1989
till April 1999. They have always been supported by a maintenance contract,
originally with Digital but in recent years a company called ICM Team had the
contract.
There are three cabinets, all desk-side size (28" tall x 14" wide x 20" deep)
being (I think) the main CPU, the backup CPU and the expansion box.
Since I (still!) haven't signed the lease on a storage unit of my own (local
council not replying to letters), I shall probably not be bidding, but what do
people know about these machines? How fast / reliable / compatible / easy to
set up are they?
Good luck, one and all.
Philip.
PS Enquiries and offers to Martin, just in case you'd forgotten.
