Recently, I've seen quite a few older systems being offered for sale
for low sums of money. Instead of this, I ask you to consider the
following:
I restore, reprogram, and then donate computer systems to
schools and other non-profit organisations (churches,etc).
I do this mostly for the experience and contacts, and no
*NO* money ever changes hands during this process. Mostly
I've depended on local companies to provide me with hardware,
but that well is drying up rapidly. To date I have restored
3 PDP-11 systems (2 donated to schools, one is still here awaiting
a pickup), 2 CP/M machines (Both went to a catholic school in
NY), and an old VIC-20 (which is now quite happy at a pre-school
teaching young people about the alphabet.)
If you or your company has any older computer systems laying
about, would you consider donating them to me? I'm not a company,
so I don't know about tax write-offs and the like, and I can't
offer any sort of monatary recompense, but I can gaurentee that
these systems and software will be put to good use.
What I accept: Old mini-computers and micro-computers (complete and
in pieces.) Terminals, drives and tape systems, software of
any shape and size (OS's are especially helpful!), MANUALS (again,
very helpful!) old computer magazines (Schools love these!),
and anything else laying around. In short, anything! Not everything
will be used, but things have a way of becomming useful! (Thanks D.R.W.
for those bus terminators! Really needed them!) (And, thanks C.P.P.,
that BA-123 really was helpful!)
Hoping to hear from YOU,
Chris

This is in response to my "Computer systems needed" message of about
a week ago.
It seems many people have tried contacting me about this, but due to
whatever problems in mail routing they could not reach me. If anyone
wishes to contact me they can call me at: (203) 758-8334. This is a voice
number, and I'm only there evenings and weekends. You MIGHT be able to
reach me at Aetna in Hartford, the number there is 273-8083 (I think! It's
changed recently not I'm no longer sure!)
