Yes, very interested in the manual. I tried to get the seller to scan the manuals but they declined. Since I knew you had one, I was wondering if it was you that got it. I was out bid early on, but was hopeful that whomever won the bid would then scan and archive the manuals.

So it appears that the two copies I received are identical. I'll go through and make sure, but if they are, I don't need both -- do you want one?

I'll get the manual scanned this morning. If someone wants to do advanced PDF processing, that'd be great!

Thanks for sharing this. It is nice to have the details with the monitor commands, etc. A monitor listing would have been nice, but since they published the schematic, they probably considered the monitor to be their only intellectual property they had left to hold.

what are your plans for the unbuilt board? Is it worth making a reproduction layout?

Yeah I figured the manual was worth having!

Not sure yet. I don't think it's probably worth doing a reproduction, as it requires the fairly scarce/expensive INS8154. What's everyone else's thoughts on reproducing it?

You didn't happen to win the other Miller Technology board the seller had listed, did you? I wasn't super interested in it, and it went above my limit pretty early on.

It was one of the earlier single board computers and Mr Miller gets huge credit for that, but I agree that this probably does not merit a reproduction.

I looked at the other miller board from the seller that was STD bus, but I didn’t win it.
