We are taking our Pyramid 9815 (formerly known as rex) out of service when
the current maintenance contract expires at the end of September.  It is
just too costly (in terms of maintenance) for us to continue operating.

We are willing to sell it as a whole or as parts.  Contact me if you
are interested by email or telephone (504-865-5840).

Here is the system configuration.  All of the hardware except for the Eagle
disk drive is under Pyramid maintenance through Sept.  30.

    Pyramid 9815 processor, with IOP, TPE, ITP
    32 MB memory (16 MB Pyramid, 16 MB Dataram)
    NEC 2363 1.2 GB SMD-E disk
    Eagle 450 MB tape drive
    Cipher 9 track tape drive
    Wyse 60 console terminal (will sell only with whole system)
    software: OSx5.1, NSP, Pascal, FORTRAN, Lisp

Availability: whole system - anytime
	      parts - latter part of September

		All the software packages (Chaps, IPChaps, etc.)
