- Time for that good old spring cleaning (a little early, though).
-
- I have the following equipment available immediately, all for *FREE*. All
- of it is located in Jersey City, NJ. All of it is in working condition to
- the best of my knowledge, except where noted. Unless you want to pay real
- money up front, I cannot perform any packing or shipping of this equipment
- - in other words, if you want it, you come here and get it using suitable
- transportation. If you decide you want an item, a) send electronic mail to
- make sure it is still available. b) Set up a mutually convenient time for
- you to pick it up. c) come and get it. If you fail to pick it up, we will
- (at our discretion) drop it in our dumpster or offer it to another party.
- I will _not_ take "reservations" for an item someone else has reserved by
- proceeding through step "b" above.
-
- If you have questions about the equipment or what I meant above, send
- electronic mail. Do not call - phone calls will be either rudely rejected
- or ignored (the last time I tried to give away a 780 I had 50 clueless
- newbies call me and ask if it would fit in a 1-bedroom apartment, etc.).
-
- I will not remove individual options from any of the listed items. If you
- need some piece, you get to take the whole thing. We will cooperate fully
- with the authorities to determine who performed any illegal dumping, so don't
- drop the parts you don't want in the cemetary down the street (yup, that
- happened last time too).
-
- Here is the list:
-
- o 24 cartons of pin-feed lineprinter paper, 12"w x 8.5" high. White paper. I
- don't know if it's perfed or not.
-
- o 20 RK07 disk packs in boxes. Some -EF, the rest are -DC. Some have older
- RSTS/E distributions (V7.0 - V9.x). *

- RSTS/E distributions (V7.0 - V9.x). *

- * Note: If you take any of the magnetic media, you will be required to sign
- a document stating that you agree to fully initialize them before use; that
- you will not attempt to read any information currently on them; and that you
- will impose identical conditions on anyone you transfer the media to. This
- will need to be signed by an officer of the corporation if you are a business
- or by you if you are taking the items as an individual.
