Here's another one. Why does this seem familiar? Didn't I already post
this to the list? Or did someone else? At any rate, it just plunked into
the hopper so I'm passing it along.
An IBM 5362 in England. The address makes no sense to me: I think this is
an estate sale company in four locations(?) North Leaze Farm, North
Cadbury, Yeovil, Somerset. Take your pick. Sorry, my geography of the UK
does not enable me to figure out where this is exactly. Or maybe it IS
the address (quite odd by US standards at least). Or maybe it doesn't
make sense anyway.
Whatever.
There's also a Kienzle 2000 "magnetic card accounting computer" which
sounds rather cool.
Please do contact Bill Longman directly.
