OK, I'll bite. Name 'em!
Ugh. You bastard.
Ok, well there's the Codata 3300 (unix box with full height 5.25" drive
built into the case), Zendex Model 835 (well, since I announced that on
the list everyone knows about it now, but before that it was unknown to
all but maybe Kip), California Technology International Model 1032-A (Z-80
based circa 1979)...
Oh geez, that's all I can remember from the top of my head. I really have
to go walk through the garage to refresh my memory. All I know is that in
the last year, with all the stuff I've acquired, I remember on numerous
occasions finding something and thinking "now THAT's a rarity". One day
I'll have to finish that database. Oh yeah, just remembered the Compal-80
(mid 70s S-100 box, very small, I'm sure some of the old hackers like
Allison have heard of it though).
