Hi Tim,
It's probably got an RD53 in it. An RD52 would be right for a box starting out as a
23 but I wouldn't have thought that you could get a workable unix on the system with
only a 52. The problem is that 53s are not the most reliable of hard discs.
I haven't forgotten you, I still need to go to the second lockup to find out what
I've got stashed.

Someone is selling what he claims is an 11/73, in the UK: http://

It looks may be too expensive to me (he's listed it before and no one
bid then). But if I was interested my guess at questions to ask
would really be what disk (model) does it have because that's what
would affect reliability the most. Anyone have any suggestions as to
anything else I should ask?
Thanks, and apologies if this is abuse of the list (someone say if it
is, and I'll shut up).
