I could just spit.

If someone has the G111 and G233 boards that should go with this,
but not the core memory, then perhaps i can trade you something
for them.

Ahh, the only way to avoid being sniped on eBay is to be a better sniper
yourself. :-)

There were about 6-8 core planes for aution at the same time, and
several were in the wrong category. Plus, the seller didnt recognize
it as a PDP8/e or /f memory plane, so it was somewhat immune to keyword
searches.
And even so, I was sniped. But as they say, the empire snipes back.
or something to that effect.

Easy, first of all don't bid your max early on as all it does is drive up
the prices. Second, bid the maximum you are willing to bid as late in the
game as you can. If someone outbids you then, so what. I have had a number
of people email me with the comments that they wanted to bid but missed the
deadline. Sniping is just a frame of mind.

Someone mentioned a while ago that the Altair documentation was available
online in PDF format. Does anyone know the link to that site? Thanks.
