Just found this in comp.os.cpm --

Imsai 8080. Has the LED and switch front panel, although it only
displays register statuses--the switches don't work with the
Godbout Z80 card. Has been sitting on the shelf since the last
time it was used (~8 years ago); worked fine then. The drive
cables were a little ginched and will probably have to be
rebuilt; apart from that and accumulated dust/crud.

Includes:

64K RAM (56K system, top 8K is the boot ROM)

Two parallel and serial ports, max speed 9600 baud

Floppy controller board which supports DSDD on two drives

Two 8" floppy drives on separate chassis w/power supply (have
been sitting on the floor for some time and were flooded about an
inch deep but were out of most of the water and are still
probably workable)

26MB Shugart-->Discus hard drive, formats into three 7832K
partitions. System boots from floppy, you then run a prog on the
boot floppy to boot the hard drive. Has a lot of utility software
installed and functional. To save hard drive space and directory
entries, most system commands and small utilities are in a .lib
file and must be run with the LRUN command.

Original first-model Hayes 300 baud modem: Card in computer
connects to separate box holding the phone jack

Telewidget 925 terminal

Boot discs (VERY dusty, will probably have to be nursed to get
them to work), cables, etc.

What am I bid? I'm not all that hot on selling this Noble Antique
but ...
