MCA systems

Of the original lot of eight systems I bought, one was lost, crushed to
less than half the
original height in most places by a moron forklift operator.

Seems he was trying to stack a frame from an IBM 982 on it.

Really comic. The faceplate snapped into fifty bits, the cdrom
collapsed, the floppy was flat.

Plugged it in, straightened the VGA connector with a screwdriver,
kicked it a few times
(memory had become unseated) and it booted DOS.
