I would also point you at www.dvq.com - look for the link on the 1130. This is a site owned by a college buddy. He bought an IBM 1130 off of EBAY and had it shipped from Vienna for about $1K in shipping costs. He has some great pictures of him un-boxing the 1130.

He collects old computers and his collection of mini-computers rivals/surpasses the on-display collection of the Computer History Museum. I would provide a direct link - but it seems there is a connection problem right now?

Thanks. I’ll check it out. I remember them well. A couple of years ago I tossed a disk cartridge for the 1130 and several for the IBM Sys/32.

My wife says it's time.

Are you talking about Blake Patterson, by any chance?
