I have an old 1186, one of the early lisp machines from Xerox, which I
have had in a warehouse for too long, awaiting my move to a larger
apartment. Well, I live in NYC, and larger apartments still cost more
than I'm willing to spend.
So the long and the short of it is, if you want this machine, you may
have it. The monitor is a greyscale, of the huge, Startrek variety, I
have forgotten which release of the OS I have, possibly Koto, quite a
few of the original manuals, loads of fonts, contrib disks, etc.
It worked well when I warehoused it, and I assume it would still work,
modulo reseating some of the chips, and reloading the OS, natch.
So if you are in the NYC area, and want it, drop me a note.
Best,
sdb
