[labnetwork] ATTN: Two used JEOL JBX-5DII .

[P. Scott Harris]

Hi,

Just FYI, we normally make upgrade kits for Mann/GCA Pattern Generator/Stepper 
equipment but a university in China asked us to look at upgrading their JEOL 
JBX-6AII tool in the same manner (desktop PC replaces PDP-11/44, bus controller 
and related peripherals etc.) so we are currently trying that out. The hardware 
and software are there now and testing is scheduled but I haven't begun actual 
testing yet. I wouldn't have started this project if I didn't think that it was 
doable but I won't know for certain until testing is complete. I guess that all 
of this is just to say that you might have other options for the equipment if 
the computer controller issue is your primary reason for getting rid of it.
