Well, my only source is this:

http://www.faqs.org/faqs/dec-faq/pdp8/section-6.html

Which says 142 sales(!). And given its age and how few I've seen or
heard of it seems plausible.

Maybe. I was thinking of the Retrocomputing society of Rhode Island,
which I believe has one or two, but I have not confirmed that.
But now mr Lasner is on my list as well :)

I did a search for LINC-8 in the cctalk archives, and there are a quite
a few posts about it, so there might be some more around.

Thank you,
Pontus.
