That's a neat system. Too far away for me to consider buying, but I'm still
enjoying the pictures.
The rust looks scary.. I hope that the PCBs aren't badly corroded. That would be my
biggest worry as a potential buyer of the system. I see some signs of rodent nibbles on
ribbon cables inside the tape drive, but those are easily replaced.
I wonder what that lower card cage is for? It's not for the internal TU58 tape drive,
which is self-contained and uses a plain async serial port.
I think this will be a cool project for the auction winner.
