Unicomp Warehouse Liquidation

Everything they have would be membrane M based, cap BS production was long done when they took over.

But haven't IBM used that plant since the '60s?

Im sure there is a shipping carton of f77s sitting in a dusty corner, just waiting to be discovered

I know that site was Lexmark at some point, but I do not know if Lexmark had expanded to that location after the IBM sale or if that was a pre-existing IBM site that was taken by Lexmark.

The IBM Lexington plant was mentioned as operational in 1958, manufacturing typewriters.  I suspect this is the same plant that Unicomp is now using, but I have no hard evidence for that.  One factor that suggests otherwise is that the plant employed thousands of workers during its heydays, while Unicomp doesn't sound like it employs ~5,000 workers on its assembly lines.

But otherwise, it doesn't sound impossible.

IBM's main plant in Lexington was where Lexmark still is.  New Circle Road.  If this ever was an IBM building, it's a secondary location.

Oh that makes sense too

It's a warehouse I wouldn't mind poking around in
