Hi Dave, That's exactly what I remembered - *infinite* storage across many volumes :-)
That enclosure looks practical as well. - Whats the PSU? Fortunately the UK and Aus have the same power 230V (ish). Given the level of completeness, I would be very happy to provide the completed unit a new home if you are happy to send it. If you do find the other board and bits, I would have a think about them - Maybe somebody here in Oz would be interested - I will ask around - I dont think I *need* a PDP8 cluster ;-) Maybe thats also a conversation for the Minister of Parks and Recreation here :-) I love that the IOB is surface mount - It has caused my brain to start thinking about simplifying some of my STD bus based boards to be SM - So much cleaner. I can do payment via Paypal if thats ok? Just let me know what you would like..
