Have you ever posted this fact to the list?

Two years ago, I made a cross-country trip, and one of the stops was to one of the
last people who was doing third party service on 19xx's in Louisville. I took all   
of the maint docs, some of the packs and all of the boards from a 19xx because they
were cleaning out a storage unit. I had several more stops to make, and had no 
room for the complete 1900 that he had.

The 1900 CHM has came from a hospital in Kentucky and was picked up by someone who
was interested in the machine and drove there and back to pick it up.

Aren't these rebadged Convergent NGENs ?

Marvin Johnson has a bunch of docs on these. I didn't realize how sophisticated the
OS was on these, probably should see about getting the docs scanned, if he still has
the stuff.
