Any chance of a scan of that?? It's be interesting to see anyway, plus it'd
probably help me figure out how some of my CU bits fit together!
Anyway, I'll see if I can work out later what I have if I get chance. It's all
in storage back in England, but I think I photographed / scanned / archived
pretty much everything before I left the country. No clue when I'll be able to
access the physical items again though, sadly :( (JGH I haven't forgotten that
I have a pile of 'scrap' CU hardware with your name on it if I can ever figure
out how to get it to you!)
Oh, I did almost bring my complete System One on the plane over with me, but
then decided that it'd probably cause too much of a stir with the airport
security people! 'bare' circuit boards, a keypad and a one line display - no,
that's not a bomb timer at all, officer...
cheers
