It was me.  (Sorry bear -- didn't see your mail or I (probably :)) 
wouldn't have bid against you).  That was a bit more than I wanted to 
pay, but I couldn't pass it up.

Seems to be complete (missing a few screws).  Powers up and announces it 
has failed the keyboard diagnostic (expected, since I have no 
keyboard.)  Hard drive is unfortunately a Micropolis 1325 (same as an 
RD53) which means that it's got about a 90% chance of not working 
without some fiddling, and even then... it does spin up, though.

Now I just need a Domain keyboard (there are 7 listed on eBay, but 
they're $50 w/shipping -- ebay item 1402866261901).  And maybe a mouse.  
And some OS media...
