Dave,
	I rescued it from Univ of Iowa about 1/2 years ago.  It has been
sitting there waiting for me to move 220v outlets and convert to
single phase since then.  Poor picture at

I have all the specs at the office and will send them to you tomorrow.
Everything is there and was a working pull from the University. 
Someone borrowed the DEC nameplate otherwise complete.  I know that
there was a CPU upgrade along the way but complete specs are with the
units.
	Always wanted to get it running but my time is just non-existent.  I
have been up for 22 hours straight now (1:25am CST) and need to be
moving at 4:00am CST but can find all the specs and part numbers for
boards and drives tomorrow.  
	Maybe I could deliver?  Would love to see the new setup, and could
call it vacation 8-)

Phil
