Does anyone
know of a good second hand supplier of parts for XT's?
 I need a replacement keyboard, and would prefer to get an original
 replacement. Would also like to know where to get things like 
 controller
  cards, full height IBM 360K floppy drives, and
low capacity MFM and 
 RLL
  harddrives. 
 Stuff like you want isn't usually carried by the mainstream
 merchandisers.  (Though I'd expect you could find XT keyboards
 without too much difficulty; I remember buying some keyboards at Fry's
 just
 last year that were switchable between XT and AT via a little slide
 switch on the bottom.)  You're best bet is to hit the electronic
 surplus stores in your area and dig through their bins.  Here
 in Vancouver, there's a place called "Computer Warehouse" which
 has an excellent supply of XT- and AT-era hardware, including
 floppies, controller cards, and MFM drives.  When I lived in LA,
 All Electronics (especially their big store on Oxnard in Van Nuys)
 was a good source of this stuff.  University and school surplus
 auctions are also a good place to find this sort of stuff.
 Tell us where you are and someone
 local to you may be able to point you in the right direction.

  Here in the Dallas area, there are several good surplus stores.  I saw
full height hard drives for $1.00 last week, XT keyboards (original IBM)
are usually around $3-5.00.  Also we have a computer fllea market the
first Saturday of each month.  I bought a mint CalComp "E" size pen
plotter with over 200 pens for $100.00 yesterday at First Saturday.
