Years ago, a retired business man living in Santa Ana, California, closed his data processing business [Retail Business Sytems] and stored the computer equipment at his residence.
Ths system is very clean and was maintained regularily when in use in the 80's.
He'd like to get some money for this system, but will donate if required.
Let me know if you're interested, or have any recommendations.
