Australian DECstation-manager,
        I have won a disposal tender on a DEC Station I used
to use as my main terminal for access to a bunch of 5000/250
that were doing a specialised function. The unit was
described locally as one of the consoles. Incidently my role
was just an operator, though I did write some scripts to
massage event records. The collection comprised of the
following:-

1 x Digital DEC Station 5000/133 Model PM 32B-MY
1 x Monitor Model GDM - 1961 ( VRT19 - H4 )
1 x Tape Deck Model 1681 - 0
1 x Keyboard Model LK401 -AA
1 x Mouse
Plus assorted cabling.

        Unfortunately no books or installation CD, and I
wonder if any Australian DECstation-manager could send me a
CD-ROM to install Ultrix 4.3 or similar. I am interested in
paying for costs for sending a CD-ROM that may have been
relegated to being turned into a drink coaster. I assume
there have been updates for Ultrix and that 4.3 is old.
        My email address is:-
ajudson@vnpbanp1.telstra.com.au
        My location is:-
Melbourne Victoria Australia

        If I fail in getting an installation CD, I guess I
could use the 2GB DAT for my 486 Linux machine.
