I have a 7013 and AIX 3.<something> on tape, if someone can tell me how
to extract it all from the tape and put it in a useful format for you
I'm more than happy to send you a copy, although I don't know if it will
be of much use to you as the 7013 is has a POWER processor not a PPC
processor. (My knowledge on AIX is low so detailed instructions would be
good for copying the tape data)

:D
