I used to work there. I *can't* get the cool stuff out. All of it goes in
containers to scrappers. They have a room with three 11/44's, TC11's on
each and several TU55's. I was unable to get any cooperation in rescuing
any of it when the room gets emptied.
I watched as a box with 100+ UNIBUS boards was loaded onto a forklift, core
boards on top. It all went to the melter.
They are a large company with inflexible large company policied. I have no
pity for Lucent.
