Joe and Carlos

Actually I have two or three of the complete systems. And the cables and
power bricks to go with them. I probably have 6-10 power bricks and ables
to connect them to the modules. I also have the cables to connect terminals
to the systems.

The systems use x-bus to link the modules, they run CTOS, and were built by
Unisys, Datapoint, Concurrent Technologies..
Pointer to FAQ about CTOS.

I'll give them to you if you pay shipping from Kansas City.
