Louis,
I've got two functional SWTPc systems here, including a 6800,
with full documentation. One of the more useful sites about these
machines is Michael Holley's web site at:
http://www.swtpc.com/mholley/index.html
He's designed a new floppy controller for them and there is
also a group working on an IDE interface.

Today I acquired an SWPTC 6800 computer full of boards,
an SWTPC
AC-30 cassette interface, an
SWTPC keyboard/terminal (in what looks like an old teletype case), a
cassette recorder, some software on
tape, and a camera tripod for $15. If it hadn't been for the tripod
(which I didn't want anyway), the cost
would probably have been $5.
There appears to be a good deal of literature on the Web about this
computer. One link I couldn't find was
to Mike Dogas's page. Mike, you out there?
The system looks like it hasn't been used in a very long time, and
need a little attention before it gets
plugged in.
There is no CRT with the system, and I haven't had time to figure
out exactly what is required with the
SWTPC keyboard/terminal. But there are wires all over the place!
Pointers to useful information appreciated, especially on how to get
a disk system working with this system.
Thanks,
Louis
