I want a DEC PDP11 (an old computer). And I live in the UK. And it would be good if it was free, or very cheap. Does anyone have any idea how I could find one? And/or know what very cheap would be?
Cheers
Steve

Here you go sport, Ebay to the rescue! It’s strictly cash and carry though.PDP11 with many peripherals and manuals - Item # 2017441249
$ 100. -
NOTE: For pictures visit www.fas.harvard.edu/~cudney/pdp11.html
I am selling a large quantity of PDP11 related hardware and literature. WHRB received it all as a gift several years ago, but now we have both no use and no room for it, so it must go.
I myself know nothing about using any of this equipment, so I cannot vouch for the functionality of anything here, except that some lights turn on and a humming noise starts when the key is turned to the ON position.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
We will NOT ship this item. You must come to Cambridge, Massachusetts and pick it up. We will help you load it. We will accept payment in the form of check or cash when you come to pick it up.
Inventory:
PDP11
We have over 80 manuals for different PDP11 hardware and software. Some is in shrinkwrap, nearly all is in binders, and all is in good condition.
For a complete list of manuals, as well as pictures of the hardware, visit www.fas.harvard.edu/~cudney/pdp11.html
If you have any further questions, e-mail rcudney2@yahoo.com
Thats the problem. While I might risk $100 on the chance of gettin it to work, picking it up from Massachusetts to bring back to the UK would be a little tricky.
