<I may be in the running to buy an 8800b turnkey model which (sigh) doesn'
<have the nice front panel that you describe for the 8800b. Can you tell
<me how the turnkey works? Does it have a ROM'd bootstrap loader? Will
<be able to program it if I don't have drives?

The fronpanel less version of the MITS was the 8800b (turnkey) and it was
generally configured to boot their disks. There may have been boot options
for cassette or papertape boot as well.
