Out of curiosity, is there anyone else here who collects and/or restores computers from the 1960s and 1970s?
I was down at the computer-history concern today I devote time to (yes, skirted, so that's at least tangentially on-topic) to gather some pieces-parts that need professional restoration and have a couple of technical questions about computer gear that shipped with Data General systems in 1972, specifically about the dimensions of rubberised capstan coatings (paper-tape and magnetic tape drives).
Please drop me a PM if you have personal knowledge of these systems or, even better, access to better technical documentation than I have! Thanks.
