Which model 11/110 11/130 11/150 (my favorite)

Love that buzzer they use for the bell.
> a VT-62 (What`s a VT-62?

An advanced VT52 compatible terminal with multidrop DDCMP support so you
could use them like smart block mode terminals with them being queried
for info by address.

I believe they also had reverse video support which may have been
missing in the VT52.

> PDP-8a
Cool.

> LSI-11 system?
Still a great thing to play with.

> PDP-8 partially stripped, but with paper tape reader.
The tape reader's a great find.
What model 8 8/E?

> Rainbow
One hell of a CP/M box.

> Vaxmate - parts.
Not the greatest box but a slick package.
