Folks,
I noticed that my IMSAI 8080 chassis is warped under the power transformer. The catch is that it is warped UP (yes up) about half an inch. At the recent MARCH CP/M workshop I noticed that Rich Cini's IMSAI is warped up in exactly the same place, but less deflection. There were 2 other IMSAI's and they were not warped.
Anyone else notice this, or have an explanation? I think that it may have been a) heat from continuous running or b) extended storage upside-down.
My IMSAI is clamped to my workbench with spacers trying to convince it to 'go straight'.
Just curious if anyone else sees this on their IMSAI 8080...
Crawford (taking a short break from 12-bit to hang with the 8-bit crowd)
