			All cabinets have been transported to my house with the help of my good friend Nisse. He is starting to get used to move machines like this. It took three trips with a cargo wan and two trips with my car to get all the equipment moved.

			It is finally done so now starts the job of documenting, scanning, making images of media and restoring the machines. I got 14 SCSI disks and many floppies to copy.
