I could not find sufficient space for such a large object anywhere =
reasonable.

Yeah that's the part that's just line noise.   What are you sitting on
right now?
Couldn't it be a PDP-11 instead?   And do you sleep lying down?   That space
could be put to better use.

John Wilson (whose dining room has an 11/34a and an 11/93 in it, kitchen
has
two RK05s, living room has a BA23 with a Mentec CPU, etc. etc. etc.)

My wife is pretty tolerant, but that would be too much. I tell her how lucky
she is; I could have reacted to my mid-life crisis by buying a sports car
and growing a pony tail, instead I just collect old computers, which is a
lot cheaper (mostly!) and less embarrassing. :-)
