I was just told there's a TI-990 mini available in the Lansing, MI area.
It's going to the scrapper if not claimed in the next day or two.
Included are a CPU in a tall single rack, two floor-standing
removable-pack disk drives (probably 80MB), a stack of disk packs, and
"fairly complete" documentation.  I have only seen photos, and never
worked with these systems, so don't know much more.

I'm trying to buy the machine a few more days before the scrapper, but I
wouldn't count on that.

I may be able to store the machine in a rental cube for a limited
period.

I will try to save the disk packs and doco regardless of whether the
machine gets saved.

I don't believe they want money for the system, though I didn't have a
specific discussion.

If you're interested, get in touch with me off-list at the above e-mail
address.
