Simple questions: My sister-in-law's accounting firm is getting rid of a Burroughs 9000 system (2 HD, streaming tape, 6 tubes, printer) and I have been asked if I might want it. Hence, a couple of questions: 1) What is a Burroughs 9000 anyway? 2) What does it run? 3) Is there anything I might want to scavenge off of it? (disks, tape, etc.) Responses by mail welcome and appreciated. <<<John>>> jruschme@nyx.cs.du.edu
