Hi! Just stumbled over https://www.ebay.de/itm/265064917329 . Is it a system somebody of you is offering? Given that it would need to be shipped through Europe and is in unknown condition, I'd probably bid a few Euros on it. MfG, JBG --

Wow, I've always wanted an 11/750. Not sure why, the small box size is impressive and all that. However it doesn't look like that one has a MASSBUS adapter so I will have to pass... And I just gave away a M7850 memory board :-) C On 2/23/2021 8:02 PM, Chuck Guzis via cctalk wrote: On 2/23/21
