Per the subject, Midlands UK. I don't know how big of an area that is, but I do know that it's way out of the way for me to go pick up. = Apologies if I did not make it clear, I am located about 12 miles SSW of Birmingham, United Kingdom. My 3W location is tilt.custom.glitz I have also checked and tested the following: Apple Powermac G4/768Mb/74Gb OSX 10.4 Apple Powermac G4 Mirror Door Dual 867MHz CPU/1.75Gb/74Gb OSX 10.5 Both in very good condition and running very nicely with OSX installed, working DVD and Ethernet. Both are lovely machines, not keen to do FTGH but would entertain reasonable offers to get them a good and loving home. Also available but as yet untested (working when racked) a Dell Prolinea 575e and an HP Vectra VE. The Dell has what you might term a proper FDC. Those who are into FDD transfers will know what I mean. Both of these are FTGH. Sorry for those who are outside of the UK, I know how it feels. Having said that, I would trade all of this (including the Powermacs) for a working Cromemco Z2D or CS3 chassis. I would even consider a Cromemco System-1 chassis. James

FTGH Various DLT and 4mm DAT Drives - Midlands UK
I’m having a general clear out and the following are free for the collection rather than they go in the skip/dumpster. Most if not all were working when put away but I can’t offer any guarantees. Preference will be given to anyone who will take all of them. Photos are available if required, if I get time to ge a drive on line and can erase tapes quite a few will be available as well. - Compaq 20/40GB in chassis - HP Surestore DLT40 in chassis (20/40GB?) - Digital DLT in chassis (35/70GB) - Compaq 35/70GB in chassis - DLT 35/70GB in chassis (same drive as in the Digital chassis) - DLT 35/70GB bare drive (same drive as in Digital chassis) - 4mm DAT in chassis (probably 4/8GB) - 4mm DAT, 5.25” spacers, no chassis, (probably 4/8GB) - 4mm DAT, 5.25” spacers, no chassis, (probably 4/8GB) - 4mm DAT, no spacers, no chassis, (probably 4/8GB) They won’t be around long so with apologies, if you have any interest, please don’t delay. Let me kow here then we can take comms off line. Sorry, can’t ship. — James --- Credentials Loves Cromemco, loves Unix, loves DeSmet C.
