Several people asked my location.. Phoenix, AZ. Freighting stuff is
neither hard nor expensive if it comes to that but I'm just trying to
gauge value at the moment.

A fair amount of Apollo software doc can be found at:
http://bitsavers.org/pdf/apollo/
I have other stuff that they probably don't have (yet),
I just fired off a note to Al Kossow, and I expect that QIC tape images
I have will end up on bitsavers.org/bits before too long. Things like
Aegis SR 9
I wasn't aware of that. I have a ton of Apollo QIC images. Shall I put
them up on my Google Drive for you to grab?

It's nice to see all the interest. I gave all my Sun stuff (except one
UltraSPARC)
to a museum several years ago and I hope they are still happily plugging away.

Definitely interested here Bill - I've got 3 Apollos from a rescue - have the
machines and all the token ring gear but no manuals
or software - as yet have to fire them up but anything Aegis related is of
interest to me.

Come join us in Seattle on February 10th and 11th for the first VCF PNW.
We have 20 exhibits, six speakers, and a panel discussion planned. There
will be a consignment area for buying and selling vintage gear, and of
course there is an entire museum (Living Computers:Museum+Labs) to check

My guess is it will cost you about $25 a pop to get rid of them. They can
not be sent to the landfill as they pre-date RoHS by quite a bit.

Ahh I didn't realize it was just the EZSCSI disk. Grabbed it just in
