I don't know how many of you have read through the whole Christie's listings, so I figured I'd summarize the computers that are in the Paul Allen auctions.
There are two auctions: https://onlineonly.christies.com/s/firsts-history-computing-paul-g-allen-collection/lots/3726 starting Friday, and https://www.christies.com/en/auction/pushing-boundaries-ingenuity-from-the-paul-g-allen-collection-30730/ on September 10th. In the first one, I see these computers (ignoring microcomputers and personal machines like Tandy computers): Lot 102, LGP-30 (and other stuff) Lot 106, IBM 650 Lot 107, IBM 7094 Lot 111, PDP-5 Lot 112, PDP-10 (KA10) Lot 115, Straight 8 Lot 116, Linc-8 Lot 117, PDP-7 Lot 118, CDC 6500 Lot 119, Xerox Sigma 9 Lot 122, HP 2100S Log 125, PDP-10 (KI10) Lot 135, IBM system 6 Lot 137, DECsystem-2020 Lot 138, LISP machine Lot 139, Xerox Star Lot 144, HP 1000 Lot 147, Cray-2 Lot 149, System Concepts SC40 In the second one: Lot 16, Bendix G-15 Lot 17, CDC 160 Lot 30, Xerox Alto Lot 32, Cray-1 Some of these seem like things that are not totally out of reach; I wonder if some of you are thinking about bidding. paul
