Free to the first person who can collect it:
I have an HP 2100A looking for a new home; this system doesn't come with
any peripherals, it's just the system unit.
I have no idea what the modules are in this system, but at least one of
them
appears to be a magnetic core store. I've never switched this system on,
so I don't know what condition it is in - I'd certainly recommend
testing
the power supply offline before use. Since I have no software for this,
it's most likely to be useful to someone who has the software and
peripherals
already.
The date shown on the chips would point to a manufacture date arond
1975.
This system in in Bristol UK, it's heavy and fragile and therefore I
would
prefer not to ship it. Priority will be given to anyone who can
collect, but
if there are none such then I am prepared to ship it provided the taker
covers my packaging and
shipping costs plus any import duties.
