found as part of the stack saved from an engineers estate: Tandem
Computers cartridge tapes and docs
Cartridges are appox 4x4x1 and the tape appears to be half inch. Some
are in boxes marked "Cartridge Tape CT-130" All have labels
indicated they are Tandem Computers "Site Update Tapes" with 1988,
89, and 90 dates. Cursory google produced nothing. Secondary label
on one cartridge would seem to indicate they are used for software
distribution.
I have seven of the cartridges along with several Tandem Non-Stop
manuals. Manuals have been scanned.
Anyone interested? Free for shipping from 95006 (call it 5lbs wt)

Hmmm, they just has a Tandem Computers reunion in the Bay area last
month, with over 400 attendees!
If you aren't in touch with anybody from Tandem, I could mention this
to my friend who used to work for them.
He used to have a Non-Stop I in his basement. He built it from
cast-off boards, some of them blank so he had to stuff them with chips.
Jon
feel free to inquire for me!
