   I think you mean the 6800 CPU trainer, model number ET-3400. I have one
of those.

  Nice! You don't see 6800 systems very often. I'm the lucky(?) owner of a
Tektronix 4051 with a 6800 CPU.

   I'd like to hear more about this one. The Intel stuff is surprisingly
rare considering how common it used to be. I'm in the process of creating a
website for them. I have an Intel MDS 225 that's been severly upgraded. I
also have a lot of docs and software for mine. Mine has been upgraded to a
Series III.
