Rumours circulating the web had the possible 4th machine as the one in 
Australia and a recent press article listed Max Burnett as having that 4th 
machine in his collection. However the photo gallery that went with it did 
not include any of the PDP-7. Anybody know of any more info obout this?, of 
know of contact details for Max?, he apparently used to work for DEC 
Austrailia.

Any information anyone finds, has, or comes across about the PDP-7 range of 
machines would be appreciated so that I can add it to -

Many thanks for everybodys time, especially Bob Supnik who started me off 
with the service list.
