Someone local to me has had a 11/785 and a few options in storage few
several years now. I don't remember the configuration, and have no
interest in obtaining it myself. A few years back I contacted him on
behalf of a list member, but never got very far. I think he wanted too
much for it at the time. I seem to recall an expansion box, TU77 or
78, and a CDC 9766.If there is any interest, I can check it out. I've
talked to him a month or so ago about something else and he mentioned
he still had it.
On a side note, I have a 780 spares kit and other parts.
