Fwd: [rescue] PDP flip chips and memory boards, many lbs. worth

by paul_koning＠dell.com

Figured this might be of interest... paul Begin forwarded message: Date: January 17, 2011 9:23:22 PM EST To: pkoning at equallogic.com Subject: Fwd: [rescue] PDP flip chips and memory boards, many lbs. worth Forwarded in case you know anyone who collects real PDP iron out there... john Begin forwarded message: Date: 17 January 2011 20:21:26 EST To: The Rescue List <rescue at sunhelp.org> Subject: [rescue] PDP flip chips and memory boards, many lbs. worth Reply-To: The Rescue List <rescue at sunhelp.org> Some of you here know that I recycle old PC motherboards, etc. though whenever possible I try to divert anything valuable/historical out of the melt-it-down pile. I have many pounds, well over 100lbs., of DEC PDP "flip chip" modules. I have to charge for them, but would like to sell all of them, all at once, to 1 person if possible, at a per-lb price ($8 per lb). Given that these flip chip modules are not very heavy this works out to well under $2 each, I think. Some are in original plastic shrink wrap, but most are not, and have been exposed to moisture but are otherwise complete; some have had the resistors or capacitors on them "weep" which means they would have to be replaced by someone competent with a soldering iron. A random listing of the few that I pulled out: A123 A206 A207 G728 K012 K026 K028 K123 K124 K134 K161 K202 K210 K303 K683 M113 M1502 M155 M207 M230 M502 M652 M7264 M783 M7941 M920 M974 There are many more. Are there any PDP collectors on this list - I know there used to be but perhaps this stuff is just too old these days.

Is psilo down?

And I'll go right ahead and answer my own question by stating that resetting my router fixed the issue, and therefore I assume that psilo is fine.

SIMH VAX memory weirdness

by hvlems＠zonnet.nl

Perhaps. Run @sys$manager:tcpip$configure Select server options, the last one ought to be xdm. Its state must be enabled, it is probably disabled or stopped. Once you disable a service all files get deleted. This all off the top of memoryn I have no access to my own systems now so i can't check all this.
