I worked for a company which had at lease 10 machines working. I would
suggest that you contact Carl Keogh at Austral Bricks in Perth Western
Australia who aquired the old Bristile company. When I left 8 years ago they
had just decomisioned two of the IBM RT's running Pick OA 2.02 and System
Builder.

Unfortunately your request came too late by 6 months. I had a fully
operating model I put together from parts that I send to the tip including
the 40kg of manuals and operating system disks that went with it. It was not
running Pick but Unix.

If you are going to load pick on an RT you will need the access code, else
you will not be able to load the mini disks, unless the operating system is
still on the hard drive. The system could take a configuration of 1 x 310mb
Hard Disk to 3 x 310 MB Hard Disks. The mini disks are stored on any of the
drives installed. You will also need the the Virtual Disks 1 & 2 if you want
to run Pick OA.

Jim Garratt
