The system is quite distinct, The leds are multicolor, with green for
data, red address and yellow
status, The front panel has a rough hole with a radio shaack circular
key switch and a 555 mod to
repeat single step when held down. It has one of the poly 22 slot
motherboards. The one with the
stupid delron rod. I just wondered if anybody had seen it. I'd just like
to hassle the guy, There's nothing
else that can be done at this late a date.
