Wow, Look at all the drives. It looks like it even has a Diablo hard drive. I don't know what the drives that are below the 5.25 drives are??

It's for pickup only in Royal Oak, MI otherwise I would go for it. Includes a disk drive. Looks like it needs to be gone in a week. See: https://www.ebay.com/itm/General-Automation-1972-SPH-45-16-Minicomputer-Con… Bob -- Vintage computers and electronics www.dvq.com<http://www.dvq.com> www.tekmuseum.com<http://www.tekmuseum.com> www.decmuseum.org<http://www.decmuseum.org>

One other interesting thing I recall with the SPC-16 was that it had a < 1RU-high pull-out table for putting a manual on when toggling. IIRC this is the grey panel/bar immediately below the console as shown in the eBay photos. It seemed a really great idea but I've not seen any similar programmer console benches in other 70s minicomputers, although a 1978 DEC catalog I have shows they had one available as part no. A-H950-G for the H960. The line drawing seems to show it folds down rather than slides in like the GA one.
