Parting out on eBay

        Quite the contrary .. by splitting this up into "managable" size lots,
he will spread it around where it will do the most good. Imagine how
many systems will be either enhanced or fixed and how many other people
will be intriqued by the possibilities of actually getting a PDP-8 up
and running.
        Certainly a lot more people would be interested in one or two
pieces/cards/units etc, than would be in two huge racks full. Lots
easier to transport too!
        Just my $.02 worth,
        Craig
