Paul McKinney <[email protected]> has a MicroVAX 3400 to give away, for pick up only.
Contact him directly after de-munging the e-mail address, he does not monitor this forum.
Quoting his original message:
I have a MicroVax 3400. I am moving and I do not wish to move it. It served the company with which I was working for many years, and when they disposed of it, they offered it to me, because I had been the Systems Administrator most of that time. I received it, but I have never actually done anything with it. I have several hard drives, and several interfaces that will come with the system.
I am in Southern California, moving to Texas. It will take at least two people to move it. I consider it a possibility that it might be more available in Tx, but I really don't want to move it. I am open to suggestions. If there are no takers, I'll dispose of the system prior to the move.
I have a very short fuse for this, so please contact me as soon as possible.
