Does anyone know what's going on with
imsai.net regarding the
Series 2
machines? I looked at the site hoping to get a drive chassis, but
that's
gone along with related to communication with Todd Fischer.
I had heard something to this affect as well. Several people had
placed
orders and paid deposits and all went into a black hole. The word
on the
street was that he abandoned the idea but left the web site up. I
sent him
email about six months ago asking about one of his replacement part
kits for
the Imsai and never got a response back.
I've heard the horror stories as well, but actually did have a fairly
pleasant experience with Todd. Back in January of this year I ordered
a bunch of replacement IMSAI parts, switch caps, replacement front
panels, sheet metal, etc. I first e-mailed him asking about price and
availability. I received a quick response with details regarding
pricing and shipping costs. After I placed the order I did have to
prod him once, to which he quickly apologized for the delay and then
proceeded to ship the items.
All I can suggest is to try and contact him. If he does offer to sell
what you are looking for, use PayPal. That way, if there is an issue
later on, you can probably get PayPal to arbitrate.
