Hi,
Would you ship international by USPS? I got a second address in Indiana but this will greatly increase the shipping costs as it will be forwarded to me.
What's about the keyboard. If any key is pressed it will go up or stick?
Could you send me pictures of the inside and back please?

How much are you asking for it?
Yes I am the original owner, Repair's only thing's that were ever done to the system was the following The data delay lines were replaced on the P.T. 16 KRA memory boards, they were a known trouble spot, Had to have the whole system taken to Madison Computer Store where it was purchased to have the Morrow drives config. set for the SOL I did not phurchase the Morrow drive system from them and PT'S disk drive was way out of my spending limits. Last used ?? I purchased the Heath in Jan. of 1986 I started up the SOL on occasion after that from time to time.
I see the bare box listed on E-Bay with out any memory bds. for $2125.00 I think a fare price here as this is very complete with the exception of a monitor and tape recorder for the cassette tapes is in the $2,000 - 2,500 range.
Shipping ?? I am not real crazy about shipping outside the USA shipping inside the country will be not cheap also all put together and boxed as we now speak the boxes weigh 1 - 68# 2 - 45# 3- 22# It may be in your best interest to have the Indiana connection arrange a local pick-up. I think the key action is Ok but I did not test every single key. here are the pictures you requested.
