ND-5830 Serial number 129 was given to me by Dansk Datahistorisk Forening in 2020. I believe it was previous in the possession of the Danish Telephone Company. The computer was built in 1987-11-19.

Missing parts and damages

Only thing missing is a few screws and the two bars holding in the power supplies.

Current status

The system resides in my main collection outside of Umeå. It's operational status is unknown.

  • 2020-11-05 Arrived at my main collection, the move from Denmark went just fine without major problems. To move it the last leg of the journey all side panels, the top shelf and power supplies have been removed and is sitting at it's side.
Stripped, ready for transport as soon the crate covers are put back again.

Plans

The system will be put together and tested. The disk will be imaged separately first.
