That looks very nice. I wonder what the keyboard came from? Looks vaguely IBMish, I can't see any square brackets on it like a 3277.

Wow, someone did a really nice job on that system. It was clearly a labor of love. I'd love to have it. I suspect it'll go for some money, though.

Hi all, For those interested, this system is also listed on South Jersey Craigslist for $300. Regards, Jeff

This looks/sounds like a really awesome machine -- especially now that the documentation has turned up! It stands an excellent chance of living again with the original design documents, assuming the builder kept good/accurate notes. I'd pick it up if I wasn't in the middle of three or four vintage computer projects, especially with the XT-IDE rev 3 boards arriving soon...

If anyone is interested in this, I contacted the seller through eBay. He is willing to end the eBay auction and willing to accept offers. He also told me:

"I also just updated the listing with more information: The computer includes +12V and -12V power supplies, but will need a 5V power supply. I also found the documentation on the computer including design documents, schematics, some software, original notes, Intel 8080 manual, etc."

This is out of my wheelhouse, but I am willing to drive to south jersey, front the money and pick it up if there is someone who really wants this. I'm half tempted to get it just as my intro into these machines!
