Wow, I'll bite. I'm probably going to forget a bunch of stuff. All of  
this is complete and operational, with a couple of noted exceptions.

"Old" systems part of the collection, exclusive of 8-bit micro stuff
------------------------------------------------------------------------ 
-------

Apollo DN300 - 8" floppy, 8" 70MB ANSI X3.101 fixed disk, SR8. I still  
need a keyboard & mouse.

Apollo DN5500 - SCSI, Ethernet, Domain Ring, SR10.4.1

Apple Macintosh SE, Plus, 512k, 128k, HD20... somewhere in there is an  
external 800k Mac floppy drive, with a CRAY property tag on the bottom,  
which I keep as proof of the old saw about Cray and Apple.
Apple Macintosh SE/30 - one of my all-time favorite machines
Apple Macintosh IIci - I think every nerd is supposed to have one of  
these in his closet. Mine has an '040 upgrade that breaks A/UX.

Solaris 2.1 for x86, Windows NT 3.1 March '93 Beta. I lusted after one  
of these in the early '90s.

Gould 9540 - non-SUN-derived 8 MHz MC68000 Multibus CPU, early  
ethernet, and a port of Unisoft V7 called "G*NIX". Kind of a fun little  
throwback.

fun to find HP-UX for this guy. I have a couple extra systems, too,  
that I should probably offer to the list eventually.
HP9000 345 - MC68030, HP-UX 9.10. HP's little experiment with  
integrated packaging. I could use some extra RAM for this guy.

HP9000 715/50 - FDDI, HP-UX 9.05. I used to have NEXTSTEP on this, and  
it ran my internal mail and DNS in tandem with the next machine for a  
long time.

got it; I'm trying to recover the special version of CMS off the  
failing hard drive.
IBM PC Server 320 - 2x 133 MHz Pentium, BeOS R4.5. Used to run NEXTSTEP  
3.3 and be the other half of my main workstation until it flaked out  
and was replaced by...
IBM PC Server 315 - 200 MHz PPro, 320 MB RAM, DPT SmartCache IV, 2x  
Matrox Millennium2 8 MB, NEXTSTEP 3.3. Good stuff.

goodness, AIX 4.1.5.1
IBM ThinkPad RS/6000 6020-800 - 66 MHz PPC 603 "Woodfield", AIX 4.1.4.

feel a little out of control lately.
