Yes, I have one, and most of the manuals. The only manual I am missing (I
think) is the hardware reference for the ICE-80 in-circuit emulator for
the 8080 processor. I have the hardware (2 multibus cards + probe) for
that option.
My system contains (I think) :
8080 CPU
4 off 16K RAM cards
Bootstrap/monitor/bus controller
I/O (for tty, paper tape, prom programmer, etc)
ICE-80
Double-density floppy controller + 2 drives
UPP (Universal Prom Programmer) controlled by a 4040.

Mine's the MDS800. I also have the MCS8i, which was also 8080 based, used
a custom bus, and had a full front panel. That one has 8K of RAM, (2 4K
cards), 2K ROM (in 1702s), 8080 CPU, I/O card, and 1702 programmer.

I have the double density disk controller + all the manuals, but obviously
I want to keep it.
