Someone to the north is very lucky...this is a really cool old system. I
have one that I'm looking for the right monitor for (the one that mounts
to the dimple top)....around the LA area....hint....

By the way, if anyone is looking to hack at a 3/50, I have one that won't
boot up for grabs. I'm pretty sure it's just some bad memory, but I have a
couple of these and don't have time to mess with it...
