I'm thinking that maybe someone should sit outside

I believe it has the nothing-but-horizontal-bars-in-display problem.
Picked it up in anticipation of working on it someday but I have too much to do.
With keyboard.
I think the system disks and manuals are also around.
Sorry, but I just can't get into packing&shipping stuff this size.

I looked up rivnuts and they certainly look similar. They are definitely
not standoffs though. I shall look closer at rivnuts.
also look at nutserts.
Riv-nuts are pop-rivets with a threaded center. Usable through sheet
metal, and into blind holes (very carefully)

The M24 I got the other day has the bus converter, whereas the other M24
that I already had does not. I bought a bus converter for the "old" one, but
then realised I didn't have any mounting bushes or spacers in order to
install it. I thought of removing some of the bushes from the new one to
share
