I have an interest in seeing a TI 990 minicomputer (not microprocessor 
system but minicomputer). One of my first employers, established a 
data-conversion service using that model system. It's a late 70's early 
80's business and factory-control computer.  It's unlikely to turn up 
these days. So I'm interested.

But I had to look up Kelly's reference:

Thanks to Kelly for getting back to this system. Hope he can find all 
the pieces in the Warehouse.
