Corestore - the Big Move

[Mr Ian Primus]

Glad to hear things worked out well. While I would have loved to have the Convex system, I'm really glad you found it a good home. I understand why you'd want to have someone over there take it rather than having to schlep it all the way over to the US first :)

And, good luck on your PDP-10 sale. Maybe Paul Allen will Buy It Now...

I look forward to seeing the report of the unload, and your new computer room! Collecing large iron is a hard thing to do, and finding a place to set it all up is difficult. I'm currently looking to buy my own house, and "computer-able" space is the main criteria I'm looking for. I have a couple of storage units full of large computers (Vaxen, Primes, tape drives, disk drives, etc). At home, I have a walk-out basement that has become a computer room, but it's not really big enough. There's a couple of Vaxen, PDP-11's, a Data General and some Primes that live there, and it's pretty full.

Good luck!
