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)

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.
Vancouver, B.C. region, as with the other stuff.
Sorry for top posting, . . .
Does what you just forwarded look blank to you?
Search it for:
"I have posted the pictures here:"
ending with
"Regards
Rob"
