I purchased two from the guy. They are NOS and the ribbon hasn't dried out. He apparently has a bunch of them. He's selling them for $15 each, but he will combine shipping if you buy more than one. I tried to arrange a discount for buying 5, but he was firm in his pricing. So I bought 2. I figure that if I use them both up, I can try my hand at re-inking the ribbon. At $75 for 5 ribbons, that was more than I paid for the terminal itself :-). -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" -- DirectX 9 draft available for download <http://www.xmission.com/~legalize/book/download/index.html> Legalize Adulthood! <http://blogs.xmission.com/legalize/>
