Actually I agree that this particular transaction would not really be
appropriate for this type of deal by itself....

...but if a bunch of people could bring items like this to VCFEast.....

Ps: I am sure there are a decent number of people here whould be interested
in the whole item, especially if known to be basically working.

Although I am primarily interested in PDP-8 and related, I worked on the
11/23 for most of its life (1981-1992) and would not mind getting my hands
on that system if it were not for some recent severe cash limitations.....
