Damn nice score.

Tony should have/know everything you need to. I have boot disks and
manuals for later machines (MDS-225, which I'm currently trying to get up
and running for a project I'm working on...comes up but won't boot from
the 8" floppy and I'm missing my keyboard) but nothing specifically on the
800 (that I know of).

My MDS-800 is in poor shape. It's missing the top cover and part of the
front facade is bent/broken. I plan to restore the front eventually as
these are quite rare.
