I've not heard from anyone interested in this system. It's in a rolling,
counter high, rack case. Salt Lake City area. Anyone interested can pick
it up.
If I don't hear from anyone, it's headed to the dump.

It's an HP-IB controlled data acquisition box for large real time industrial
test or automation control installations. Very specialized. Think measuring or
outputting 100's of analog signals in real time. Most likely meant to be
connected to a HP 1000 series computer running the RTE real time operating
system. HP's core test and measurement business, and the reason they went into
computers at first. This real time measurement and control capabilities could
not be matched by other minis or later PCs running Windows for a very long
time, and the antiquated series 1000 lasted a lot longer than you'd have
thought, mostly in industrial environments.

Someone on this list, I don't remember who, asked me if I was interested
in this, and then dropped it off. I've not gotten around to doing
anything with it, and I could use the space back. If anyone is
interested, holler.

If your interested in picking it up, email me directly, please. If you
have more information to share, respond to the list. :)
If anyone knows more about what this is, I'd be interested to hear.
I got these links from Mike on the SIMH list:

Mine is the "2250M" version. Apparently this heavy beast is "mobile"
because it has wheels on it. :)
