I just saw an interesting system It's a white steel box, about 5 x 8 in
and 12 inches deep. Top flips up. Its called an IBC or ICB, I forget,
and it's a Z80 based system with a floppy and Micropolis hard drive.

I also weighs about 20 pounds due mostly to its antiquated power supply.

Any info? It has a CPU card and separate controller card bussed
together laying stacked sideways over the drives and power suppy. All
the ports (many) are hardwired out the back.

I almost picked this up, and I should have. It's going for about 5
bucks.

I imagine the PS is shot, I didn't have a chance to check. Is it
possible to hook up a standard switching power supply (well that's
probably a dumb question).

Any clues, I might pick it up, if I don't go to Vegas 1st thing
tommorrow....
