Good luck, I won't tell you how long it's taken me to get even a spare BA23
and BA123 as backups. Something to consider with the BA123's is that
they're more than just a computer, they're also a small table, take up only
a little more floor space when all is said and done, and they're a lot
nicer to work on. Mine has a LA75 and a VT420 sitting on top of it, made a
little shelf to put the VT420 on top of, and paper underneath, and the LA75
holds the keyboard at just about the right height.

You might also want to keep an eye out for BA213's, but of the three I
really do prefer the BA123, as it makes the best table!
