We have an old Tektronix 4051 that hasn't been used in years, and is
simply gathering dust. We'd prefer to give it to a school or other
non-profit organization, so they have first crack at it. After that,
it's up for grabs, and will go to whoever wants to come in and carry
it away.
I'm not sure what anyone would *do* with it. It's a mid-1970s vintage
dinosaur. It has a screen and keyboard reminiscent of the Tek 4010
graphic terminals. It has some sort of microprocessor inside it, and
runs BASIC (whoopie!). Its only mass storage device is a clunky old
cartridge tape. There is an IEEE-488 interface. Also a couple of D
connectors (one 9-pin, apparently for an optional joystick; one 15-pin,
and I have no idea what it's for). Manuals included.
Any takers?
