Ethan,
You mentioned in a old post:
"I have abundance of VCB02s, so if anyone wants to turn a Qbus
MicroVAX into a VAXstation, I'm sure we can work something out
(no mice, monitor cables or cab kits, I'm afraid)."
from Fri Jun 27 20:40:38 2003
I have a MV3800 with a 8 plane (256 color) VCB set, but I do not have the
bulkhead connector or QBUS faceplate type connector nor the external keyboard, mouse
and monitor cable. Do you have any of these?
Please let me know,
Dan

As I said, I don't have the mice, the cables nor the bulkhead plates (that's
what a 'cab kit' is). I have a few keyboards, but none that aren't attached
to a VT220 or similar. Someone in Ohio gave me a box of Qbus framebuffer
boards... more than I will ever use. I don't even have a set of the
accessories for myself. I'd love to have a hockey puck or two, just for
my VAXstation 2000s.
Also, I'm about 12,000 miles away from my collection now. I couldn't even
look for those bits if I wanted to.
Sorry I can't help.
