 I trolled thru VCF forum and I think this is the one you recall. It's
 the last straight 8 I saw listed.

 I also off your topic have observed a German listing and British listing
 for Olivetti Programma 101s for 40,000 pounds and 60,000 euro, in the
 same fantasy range as this listing which is for $18,000.
 This listing shows currently terminated September 20 due to an error in
 the listing.  No relist by this vendor.  He also did something on Sept 2
 with is.
 Thanks

Realistically, $18,000 is not a bad price at all for a complete PDP-8. The
only downside is the broken off corner of the front panel glass.
