Well, Update have two of them. One can start with the turn of a key. The
other one can maybe get to running condition, but would require some work.
Definitely worth resurrecting.
The main problem is that the fan mechanically broke. Someone good at
welding would need to look at it, and I think it needs pretty careful
balancing as well. So that is a bit of an effort.
And then we don't have that much memory for it. The primary machine have
60MB in it. I think we only have 4 or 8MB left for use in the second one.
But apart from that, I think it's all fine.
The biggest
problem right now is that the cooling is broken, so we even
had to turn off the 11/70, and it seems next year we might not have any
location anymore... :-(
Well that seriously sucks. I hope you have a home for all that hardware.
Me too. Trying to sort that out. Otherwise I might end up just taking
the most fun parts to my house...
