George -
I have made contact with SAMSAT museum, and they interested in talking with you
about your collection.
I have asked the gentleman there if I can give you his email address. In the
meantime, if you wish, you can fill out a contact form on the SAMSAT website:
Contact | SAMSAT

Contact SAMSAT or reserve the Geekbus.

That way you can communicate directly with him.
I have no connection with the museum, but if I can be of further assistance,
please let me know.

Greetings all, it's "that time", the time I've finally accepted that I no
longer have the time/energy/space to devote to this collection/restoration
hobby that I've been able to enjoy for several decades now.During this time,
I've managed to amass a pretty sizeable amount of hardware, software, manuals,
etc. We're talking half a garage, part of a large shed and a storage rental's
worth of stuff. I need to go through and hit some highlights, but there are
things from rack mount PDP-10's, an SGI (Challenge XL rack, Indy's), tons of
old Macs (original, 512, original, Portable, etc), Lisa, Apple II, Commodore,
TRS80, Grid, HERO robots, DG Aviion, HP PA-RISC, MIPS system, early luggables
(e.g. Zenith), boxes of ISA cards, etc, etc, etc. A good 20ft uhaul trucks
worth of stuff.There is no way I can piece meal stuff, so I'd be looking for
someone, or an org like a museum, who is willing to take the whole
enchilada.This is an early feeler before I start doing actual inventory to see
if a) is anyone interested in/capable of dealing with a large collectionb) is
anyone aware of someone, or a museum, that may be interestedI know I'm a bit
light on the details, and we all know where the devil lives. But this is the
first step.The collection is located in Central Texas.TIA for any interest,
leads, pointers, sympathy, ridicule, etc.George
