It's time to clear out some space in the garage...

I have a PDP-11 available to any collector on the list
who'd like to come to Bristol and collect it! According to
the yellowing paper sheet taped to the top, it has:

M8186 KDF11 LSI 11/23 CPU
M8044DB MSV11 Memory 32K
M8029 RXV21 Floppy Disk
M7952 KWV11A Programmable Real Time Clock
M7954 IBV11A Instrument Bus Interface (IEEE-488 I think)
M7941 DRV11 Parallel Line Unit
M8043 DLV11J Four Async serial interfaces
M8047 MXV11 Memory and Async line interfaces

I can also supply an LA34 console DECwriter and an LA100
receive-only printer, if required. There's a 19-inch rack
with the PDP-11 and a pair of 8-inch floppy disks (RX50s?).
Also a spare pair of 8-inch drives, not in the rack.

Last time I tried it, the system booted up OK. I have the
boot disks, somewhere. Once I find them, I'll let you
know. RT-11, I think.

The machine was used by INMOS for testing the CAD
workstations that they built for chip designs that led to
the transputer.
