Hi folks,

I'm looking for Digital Equipment Corporation PDP minicomputers or parts
for a private collection.  I'll pay cash and pay for transportation if you
have one that you'd like to sell.  Please email me with full location
(zip/postal code) and price.  Donations also (gladly) accepted!

I'm specifically looking for the following models:

    PDP-1..7: (any)
    PDP-8's:  straight (no suffix), /F, /L, /S
    PDP-9's:  (any)
    PDP-11's: /15, /20, /35, /40, /45, /50, /55
    PDP-15

You can tell which ones these are because they'll have a front panel with
lights and switches -- lots of lights and lots of switches :-)  These
machines date from the late 1960s through to the early 1970s.

I'm also interested in parts, peripherals (like tape drives), software,
documentation, DEC books, etc... related to the above machines.  And how
about a wire-wrap gun?  I'm looking for something that will do 30 gauge
wire (for the PDP-series of backplanes) that's 120VAC powered...

If you have something that you'd like to trade for instead of cash, or if you
want to see that your machine will be going to a good home, please see my
webpages at:

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,
=RK

P.S. If you are a collector like me, please send me an email, telling me what
you are looking for (only DEC stuff), and your location, as sometimes I get
offers for equipment that I already have, and it would be a shame to see it
get thrown out instead of going to a good home!
