I thought this would be an interesting question to ask around - What's the
rarest or most unusual computer-related item do you own?
An HP9845C, loaded, except missing the PSU.? I got it from an HP repair shop that had used
it to repair other 9845C systems.? Apparently the power supply was pulled to test or
repair another system, and never made it's way back.? The system is in excellent
shape, but I have sadly never been able to power it up.
I at one time had a deal with Jon Johnston of the HP Museum to trade three working option
100 (standard) PSU's for a working Option 200 PSU, but I was unable to repair my one
faulty unit in time for his USA trip, and then my two working Option 100 supplies both
crumped out.? And then, Jon's tragic and untimely passing. (Moment of silence.)
