Replying to a message of Ed Hulett to Bob Ackley:

 BA>> controller and a 20MB SCSI HD.  Also a Northstar Horizon, which is
 BA>> an 8080.

 EH> You must have a large barn to hold all your toys. :-)

Actually, it's a room in one of the outbuildings, about 12x15 feet.  Contains my
big toys - an IBM S/390 plus peripherals, an AS/400, a VAX and a couple of pallets
stacked over five feet high with documentation.  The smaller stuff is here in the
house (three pallets in the basement are stacked about 6 feet high with desktops a
former employer threw out).  All together there are over 100 computers here, only
about six are in regular service (and 2 of those are Linux test beds).
