In Adrian's photo of the Intel MDS225 here,

you can see a row of eight push buttons with LEDs in them just below the
CRT.
They are a really nice push button that I have a certain affinity for.
Does anyone know who made/makes those or have a modern source for them?
C&K Digitast. There are knock-offs by others that look similar and are cheaper...
but don't feel the same.

Most of the C&K switches from the 70's are available almost verbatim (modulo
ROHS and whatever) today.

New subject: MITS 680 Expander
Don't quite know where the heck this came from.... I was cleaning the
garage and was going through some boxes looking for some Qbus SMD
controllers and ran across a brand new, MITS 680 Expander board,
pristine, nothing soldered to it and the associated edge connector and
parts, all still sealed...
If anyone has any interest in this, contact me off list...

hi Curt,
is the 680 expander board still available? I got a 680. What would
you like for it?
Thanks
