I have a S-100 N* Horizon that I have been trying to

Is there anyone out there running one or have one or Interested in one.
I also have a bunch of S-100 Vector Graphic Cards, CPU, Memory, I/O
Cards but no FDC's
Personally, I'd love an S-100 machine (N* or otherwise) - I think they're at
about that 'sweet spot' for me where they count as a useful machine, aren't
too complex to completely understand, and allow for a lot of homebrewed
add-ons and boards. (I'm a bit of a graphics nut, though, so I wouldn't want
one unless it had some kind of graphics framebuffer in it; from purely a
software point of view I've kind of had my fill of CP/M crates and text-mode
terminals :-)
I've helped rescue and move more S-100 machines than I care to think about,
but I've never had the chance to own one myself. Maybe one day...
cheers
