I know it's rude just to show up to pimp my own ebay auction, but this
is a once in a lifetime offering. You will not see the likes of this
again, believe me. Someone give this a good home and keep it running,
since I'm out of space and time. (For the curious, this is what I used
to recreate the 30-level Blaster ROMs a while back...well, this and a
whole bunch of my time and puzzle-solving abilities!)

I'll work with you to get it moved across country, wherever it needs to
go. I've owned enough pinball machines, video games, and vintage
computers to know how that's the tricky part, but we can always come up
with something.

THAT is a cool auction and an important piece of history - hopefully
someone that knows how to use it will pick this up.

Er, that would be a bit of a round-trip, don't you think? If he still
wanted it, he'd still have it!

Those hard drives and floppy drives sure bring back memories. I used
to work on that equipment, back in the day. Hopefully, this will go
to someone that can truly appreciate it, maybe use it, and certainly
preserve it.

this should be donated (or offered to, at a reasonable fee) to
the electronics conservancy, videotopia.com
-- that way it
will be put on display in their traveling exhibit.
just my opinion, of course...
