More specifically, an 'ApplicationDEC 433MP.' This is a two-CPU 1990/91
vintage 486 system, EISA bus for expansion, and a somewhat weird
proprietary bus for the two CPU boards made by Corollary (bought out by
Intel some time ago).
The system's in clean shape, both electrically and cosmetically, and is
known to be runnable on at least NetBSD/i386 (if in single-CPU mode). Has
twin SCSI buses inside. Includes 16MB RAM (maxed out), a CD-ROM drive, and
a QIC cartridge tape drive that, if I recall, is a 525-MB capable. Accepts
standard SCSI hard drives, but you'll need to either find the goofy little
feet that DEC used for those keyholed trays, or invent something yourself.
First person to hand me $20.00 cash gets it. I'd prefer not to ship: This
one's big, bulky, and fairly hefty. Would also be willing to trade for
MicroVAX III (KA650) or higher CPU and memory board(s).
Thanks much.
