Tom,

  Yeah, I can look up the number. Is it the original 150 or the later
150-II (aka Touch Screen II). The later ones are VERY boxy looking.

    The part that looks like a terminal is the complete computer (minus
drives and printer). The 9133 is a hard/floppy drive combo, it's not an
expansion chassis. There are a couple of expansion slots in the back of
the 150. There's a opening in the top of the unit above the monitor for an
optional thermal printer. But almost any printer with a HP-IB interface
will work on the 150.
