SWTPC 6800 deal of the day.

Louis,

        I've got two functional SWTPc systems here, including a 6800,
with full documentation. One of the more useful sites about these
machines is Michael Holley's web site at:

        http://www.swtpc.com/mholley/index.html

        He's designed a new floppy controller for them and there is
also a group working on an IDE interface.
