    Introduction

    Hi to everyone that might be interested in old computers and the like. That's how I found you.

    My wife and I are downsizing and have in our basement a fully configured Burroughs L 3000 with edge punch card technology. My wife actually programmed this beast for a sign licensing application in the 1970's. We bought it some decades later and here it has sat.

    We're selling the house and we're looking to dispose of it. Not sure if anyone would want ot fire up the old beast, but I believe we still have some old paper tape boot rolls.

    I'll move on from here to the appropriate threads.

    That does sound interesting. I hope it catches the attention of one of our Canadian members. Welcome to the forum, 73, Mike

    Now go beat the copper out of something, Miked
