[geeks] FS/FT: HUGE lot of DEC/PDP/VAX handbooks and manuals

Hey everyone,

I've got a huge lot of DEC PDP/VAX/etc handbooks and manuals that I need to
move out now that I'm concentrating primarily on newer Apple and Sun stuff.

This is what I've got left after cleaning out the garage and discarding other
manuals that I'm sure other people have already archived or have made available
online.  Everything is in good shape (considering its age) and none of the 
books have water damage.  One of them (the '73-74 peripherals handbook) has
a torn-off cover, but I can fix that with tape.  As a bonus, I'll throw in 
a maroon/purple DEC rack header panel.

I'd prefer to keep all this as one big lot, but I might "part it out" if I
get a good enough offer.  

Would like to sell, or trade for useful equipment (x86 systems, older Cisco
switches or PIX boxes, Mac systems that will (natively) run OS X, or just
make an offer of something interesting).

Pictures of everything are up at http://www.mrbill.net/decbooks/

Here's the list.  Email me if you're interested.  I thought I'd give 
y'all a shot before listing everything on classiccmp, Usenet, or eBay.
