Hi Ron,
If you have no luck with Bitsavers or any other source … I have had some success in digital imaging / OCR conversion of microfiche and am willing to give it a go if you can’t find anyone who is able to do so more quickly. I will be happy to do the imaging scans and OCR as a personal project (read: my day job takes a bit of time 😊 ).
Regards,
Steve

There is also the problem that these are IBM card sized fiche, and I don't know of any commercial scanners that
can deal with a sheet that large. Mine certainly can't.
My scanner has a rig for doing odd sized film materials that I believe I can adapt to that format … so it’s worth giving it a shot if you’re interested.
Regards,
Steve

My plan was drop microfiches local shop, but I'm now pretty sure they can't scan them automatically (and if they do it by hand, it will cost way, way too much). If Steven (or Al) can do the job, please send them to him then.
By the way Ron, what did you guys do on that machine back then? Did you have a MPX operating system on it?
