  • MicroVAX II wanted

    From Robert Jones@21:1/5 to All on Mon May 20 13:12:54 2019
    I'm looking for a MicroVAX II, preferably in a BA123 chassis. Ideally it will be in running condition, or something reasonably close. I've got a sentimental attachment to this box, so it will have a good home. If you've got one you're ready to part
    with, contact me.

    Hi Robert,

    I have a few boxes here in IL. Where are you located?

    Hi,

    I'm in Southern California, but we might be able to work out a pickup depending on where in Illinois you are. Thanks for responding!

    I have lots of spare parts for the BA123 boxes too. Let me know if you need any. My VAX got stolen many years ago. I doubt that it was ever used again, but...

    I'm just outside Champaign (U of I) about 120 miles south of Chicago.

    Thanks for the offer, sorry to hear about your system. I'm sure I'll need spares at some point, so I'll be in touch.

    I'm familiar with the area, but most of my contacts are in southern Illinois. I may be game to try and ship one. I've had nickelodeons moved cross country, so this couldn't be too much worse. What would you estimate for dimensions and weight on one of
    them?
