Restoration of an IBM 1130 at The National Museum of Computing, Bletchley Park, UKIf you are interested in the 1130 you can read the museums restoration progress logs below. There is still more I want to do on the system, in particular getting a copy of DMS on a disk pack, and figuring out ways to get data into the system as punching cards in not really an option as cards are getting difficult to get hold of. If you can help with IBM 2315 disk packs, copies of DMS, have spares / manuals for the system or want further information about the museum or the IBM 1130 restoration please contact me via email: peter.vaughan@tnmoc.org |

The National Museum of Computing does not receive government or Bletchley Park Lottery funding, so your help is needed. As a registered charity they can claim Gift Aid on donations from UK tax payers and thereby increase the value of your kind contribution. They use JustGiving to manage many donations - they help us reclaim gift aid where appropriate. Please help the museum continue its world leading restorations and continue to be a world class visitor attraction for young and old.
