I asked Boeblingen people, and they don't have it. I think they would also be interested if I found one. Definitely their machine runs, at least some of the time. Many compilers require disk or tape, which we don't have. I am wondering about someone with card trays left over from years ago. thanks, -- glen ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
