Two weeks ago, our IBM 3083 mainframe system was shut down and powered off.
Now the system is looking for a new place to live (except for our 7171, which
has been spoken for).

The system will be sold to the highest bidder(s) willing to de-install
and transport it.  We're even willing to break up the system and sell
individual pieces of equipment!  All serious offers will be considered.

So, if you want an entire 3083 system or any part of one, say for spare parts
(everyone needs extra TCMs, IBM memory, and a 400Hz motor-generator, right?),
this is your chance to pick up "good stuff CHEAP".  

If you're interested in all or any part of this system, you should contact
Kathi Mahoney here at Intermetrics ((617) 661-1840 x4515).  Otherwise, you
can call or write me with any technical questions ... (Email: bloom@inmet.com
Phone: (617) 661-1840 x4096) ... please don't reply to the list.

Here's the list of the available equipment:

Note: Just about all the IBM brand equipment was under IBM maintenance until
the shutdown ... the exceptions are most of the terminals, two of
3380-B04s, and, of course, the DACU (IBM didn't offer maintenance on DACUs).
We are supposed to be receiving a maintenance qualification letter from IBM
for the equipment that they maintained.
