Was yours similar to the one currently for sale? Was
it as clean as the pictures show? Did yours include the core and all the boards?

My units appear identical to this one. Systems were not as new

Any idea what it may cost to ship this to the

So, is this auction for a potentially
viable 2100S or is there some reason that it wouldn't be a
good buy?

The thing I noticed is the power cord is stored in the unit. Must be
taking up quite a bit of space as it's a think, long cable. I'd be
worried that some boards are missing, or if your lucky, it just
has no I/O cards. Worst case, the cord is stored where the core
memory was.

from an operational environment. Both appear intact but
without a list
of what was considered a "standard" card load, it's
hard to tell which
one is the more "typical." I've not had an opportunity to remove,
catalog and photograph either unit yet so I don't have a way to compare
them.
IMHO, my guess is that this latest one is probably a pretty good score.
Just remember though that Govliquidation urges you to inspect the goods
for a reason!
