3415.0. "PDP-11/93 SYSTEMS NEEDED" by ATHINA::GABI (Gabi Traubitch - DEC Hellas Prod. Mktg. & Tech. Cons.) Wed Sep 28 1994 11:21

IT SEEMS THAT MOST OF THE PDP-11/93 HARDWARE PRODUCTS HAVE BEEN PASSED TO
"MAINTENANCE".

WE HAVE AN ORDER FROM A CUSTOMER WANTING TO BUY SOME PDP-11/93 SYSTEMS.

WHAT DO WE DO ?

HOW CAN WE ENTER THE ORDERS INTO THE SYSTEM ?

PLEASE HELP

3415.1 Mentech took all the DIGITAL resources. SUBURB::POWELLMNostalgia isn't what it used to be!Wed Sep 28 1994 12:0113
    
    	Gabi, all PDP11 business has been transfered to MENTECH.  I have a
    UK contact name and 'phone number:
    
    	Doug McKay on (44) 1925-830000 which is MENTECH.
    
    	I don't know where you are, I'd guess Greece.  I've just tried to
    contact Doug to find out if they have an agent in that country.
    
    	Hope this helps - tell me where you are and I'll try and get you
    more information.

3415.2Mentech owns PDP-11 SoftwareBRITE::FYFENever tell a dragon your real name.Wed Sep 28 1994 12:415
The hardware business is still in limbo as I understand it.
You should still be able to order PDP's from Digital.

    RDxx based systems were retired.  11Z93 (SCSI based) are still
    available.

3415.4Try CSS!NCMAIL::SCHOLZThu Sep 29 1994 10:1412
    I sold 4 11/93's in June.  I had to contract Digital's CSS to provide
    them.  However, your looking at 3 month minimum lead times. Contacts
    are as follows:
    
    	CSS quote rep	- Mike Chen	264-8991
    	CSS Logistics	- Steve Silva	285-2820
    
    I'm not sure if CSS can still provide them given our new relationship
    with MENTECH.
    
    Good Luck,
    Steve

    Get me the exact part numbers that you are looking for if you
    can use used equipment. I might also be able to point you to
    a location of new stuff with the exact part numbers.
    
    Send mail to Kirk::Bmorrison
    
3415.6Still manufacturing PDP11sMR1MI1::JKANEThu Sep 29 1994 14:4613
    Gabi,
    
            - Yes some 11/93's are on maintenance
            BUT.....
              Only the 11/93's that used ST506 storage (RD type drives).
    
            - You can order the 11Z93 family of systems with no problems
              These support our SCSI drives.
               
            - We are also still manufacturing 11Z53s in Salem       
    
    John Kane
