Vintage Digital DEC 3000 300LX Mainframe 

For sale- a Vintage Digital DEC 3000 300LX Mainframe, Model PE32A-CA.  The computer does power up but as you can see the hard drive has been removed.  So at the very least you would have to replace that complete with a fresh operating system.  Not sure how you go about that as the computer has neither a CD drive nor a floppy and appears to have come that way from the factory.  When the computer is powered up the eight little red LEDs all come on, after a second one of them goes out as pictured.

I had hoped to connect this to my only vintage DEC monitor and show you the results.  The monitor powers on but I do not feel any of the static typically generated by a CRT powering up, and I got nothing on the screen.  So I am assuming the monitor needs work.  Maybe I can find an adaptor to turn the RGB into VGA.  Maybe not.  The case is in pretty good condition now that it has been cleaned up.  It is missing the two screws that secure the case to the chassis in back no doubt from when they snatched the hard drive.

All items are sold as is with no warranty offered unless one is specifically stated.  Any testing done will be explicitly stated in the listing and any accessory items will also be mentioned or pictured.  If it isn’t pictured or mentioned you can assume it is not part of the sale.

Comes with nothing other than the computer itself as pictured, so specifically there are no cables, keyboards, nothing.  HOWEVER, if you Buy It Now I will include a video RGB cable that fits the output of the computer and terminates in 3 separate BNC connections.  Please check out my other listings for more interesting vintage computer equipment, including some other DEC mainframes.  Check back often!

Please add a $28.99 flat rate for shipping anywhere in the continental US (which does NOT include Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam or APO/FPO addresses).  I will ship via the carrier and level of service of my choice unless we specifically decide on a favored carrier option.  I will, at my option, ship worldwide via USPS for the actual cost as determined by USPS.com.

If the item being sold here requires a standard modular computer style AC cord I no longer ship those automatically on the theory that everyone has a box full of them already.  If you need one all you have to do is ask and it will be included in the sale.  IF you do NOT ask for one until after the item ships it is no longer part of the sale and I will not ship one separately.
