I received this request recently by email:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have and I'm tired of storing an old S-100 box, probably home-made in a
formed and machined aluminum enclosure.  The whole thing is a tank of
impressive proportions and weight.  I saved it from the trash years ago, as
S-100 systems were common when I first started using computers (Osborne 1
era).

Originally, it had 2 8" floppy drives. One of the drives is missing,
although I have the door for it.

Inside, there's a CPU/IO card, a 64 K DRAM card, an analog data acquisition
card, and I don't remember what else.  One of the cards says MicroByte.  The
front panel had a key switch, which is still there, but pulled back from the
panel.

I have no idea if this works, but at least the major parts appear to be on
hand.

Are you interested in this beast?  Do you want pictures?  I don't want any
money other than the cost of getting it into better hands.  I'm in Eugene,
Oregon, by the way.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Too far/heavy/big for me to get it shipped here, however if there is someone
on the list who would like to give it a home, please contact me and I'll connect
the two of you.

Regards.
Dave
