We had a couple of new members show up and it was a nice = time getting to know them during the day as well as over food. Some = equipment was given away and some new donations to the Museum also. =20

Items to consider-

1. Serial box. JasonP's amazing serial box (Smart Cable SC821 Plus) let = me connect the MicroVax to a VT term- without it i wouldn't have had the = proper cabling to do it. This is a buy from me. = https://www.smart-cable.com/catalog?action=3Ddisplay&key=3D102 = <https://www.smart-cable.com/catalog?action=3Ddisplay&key=3D102> I've found it on ebay for $10-50 (just got one on ebay w/ cables for = $40).

DEC BCC08 There should be a cache of these in the warehouse. Andy Goldstein donated his MicroVAX-II from the DEC museum to MARCH/VCF. I picked it up at MRO and delivered it to Infoage. There was a cable on its console port. The MicroVAX-II had been on display at one time but I believe that it too has been relocated/retired to the warehouse. It had DEC property tags as well as other identifying marks that it belonged to Andy. If you don't know who Andy Goldstein is/was, too bad for you.
