Did a listmember get this "PDP-11/44" (really a *loaded* PDP-8/a)

I was perusing alt.sys.pdp11 via deja.com recently, and ran across
a posting offering a "PDP-11/44" for sale...

http://groups.google.com/groups?dq=&start=50&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&group=alt.sys.pdp11&safe=off&selm=3D7426A6.3040303%40nospaminsight.rr.com

I'm sure that message will hit a line break, so be sure to reconnect
it when you cut-and-paste. To make it easy of folks, let me quote
the contents...

    "The system has the following cards in it M8300, M8310, M8316, 3 x
     M8319, M8320, M8330,M8357, M8416, 2 x M8417, M8433."

... plus an RL02, RX02, 18 RL01Ks, boxes of floppies, docs, etc...

The astute reader will quickly notice that those are *not* PDP-11
handle numbers. It's a PDP-8/a with KK8E processor, KT8A, DKC8-AA,
RL8A, RK8E, KL8A and a wad of RAM.

Even better, it was in Columbus, about four miles from my farm. The
bad news is that I learned about it three weeks too late.

It did not get scrapped; it sold. I'm curious if any of us got it,
and if someone here did, if they could make images of the RL01s
and floppies available.

Wish I could have gotten it, but the hardware is nothing I don't already
have, so hopefully it went to a good home.
