I didn't look that close. Brent is of course right, memory seems to be
missing.
Something else caught my eye upon re-visiting that ad. Either that machine
never ran HP2000 TSB, or someone has pulled a lot more cards than just the
memory. I'm quite certain that a system with those cards could not run TSB
as is.
My guess is either someone pulled lots of I/O cards, or, the seller did a
quick google search on 2116 and found some mention of TSB so he assumed it
was a TSB box. Not necessarily at all.
