My wife will not let them into the house, so if my pleading
is in vain I may have to put it up for adoption in the fall,
with the 2 as400/s.

There is one disk labelled TSX,LEX, the rest are unlabeled
except for AECL 2200 BPI-12

AECL( Atomic Energy Canada Limited) is where they machines
came from I believe.

There are 2 other pack labelled RL01K-DC with TD2, and TD4

The paper tapes are labelled:
DZM91-D-PB
DZKMA-C1-PB
DZKAQ-F-PB
DFKTH-A-PB
DFKAC-A-PB
DFKAB-C-PB
DFKAA-B1-PB
DCMFA-D-PB
DZDLA-F-PB
DZDLA-F1-PB
I didn't notice a paper tape reader in the pile, but there
is a manual from a paper tape reader that gives the codes.

There is also a Manual from HP - Seminar in Problem solving
concepts for computer systems.

and a bunch for a PDP 11/15.
