Front panels: I have both 8-A, KY11-LA and -LB for 11/04, /34, one each
11/70 RDC remote diag con, corporate (blue/blue), and regular. I think
there is an 11/40 with a 11/35 silkscreen. I have to go through the 8-E, F,
and Ms.
The last dual extender is on hold, one quad is left, a few hex, a comet
(730 or 750 I think), and a 780.
Also a few 11/04 and 34 in BA11-L, maybe a -K, and a few 11/83s. I think
most of these are systems, not just boxes.
The printers include LA12, LA34, LA36, and LA120 and parts for most.
There are several hundred non-DEC boards, and a lot of core memory.
I'm still looking for the rest of the simms.
At some point, I'll be cutting the fingers off of boards no one wants. If
you are interested in any qbus or unibus boards for chips, let me know.
I can bring items to VCFMW to drop off there. There are a lot of people who
drive in from different parts of the country who might be willing to work
something out for some gas money.
Thanks, Paul

"Comet" was the code name for the 750 (the 780 was "star" which is why
the VMS system library file name is "starlet").

Paul, FYI, I don’t know if you monitor all your rmail, but i sent you some invites to some
classic computer discords where people will really want your boards to complete their
systems.

I’ve been wanting an 11/40. What’re you asking for yours? Does it run or is it at least
“all there?”
Thx

I have an 11/40 in the 10-1/2" chassis, along with some other 11s etc.

Is that the desktop one? Always wanted one of those, they're cute. But I
thought those were all 11/35's?

11/35 is the model number for OEM market 11/40 machines.

Hm. Today I learned something new. Always thought the 11/40's only came
in the big slide out rack mounts. Although if you're selling an OEM
system a 1.5 inch box is all you need so that's probably why all the
11/35's I've seen are small.

The 11/35s came in a 10 1/2 box, either the BA11-D, or the BA11-K,
which most 11/34s used.

Guys,
A bit late I fear.
I collect computer artefacts from the 50s to the 80s. Are there any DEC PDFP
11/<any> front panels (non-functional) available cheap? I might be tempted...
Many thanks,
peter
