Wow, what a collection!
And a Trigger Trace Analyzer, we had one, an expensive option IIRC, a
logic analyzer built in to a board in the 8540 reading the emulated
processor's signals and states directly. 4 separate triggers IIRC which
could be interconnected in all sorts of ways by operating system commands.
IIRC the 8540 is based on a rather unusual processor, Signetics 2650.

So, did you get it?
I just wish I wasn't so incredibly far away (being in upstate NY makes me about as far
away from that pile as possible while still being in the same country), otherwise I would
have gone for it. But that hardware would be prohibitively expensive to ship, not to
mention impossible to pack.
If, for some reason, whoever got it doesn't want the hardware and by chance happens to
be driving across the country, send me a note ;)

Donzelli is heading out this way. Dave Mcguire was interested as well.
I'm trying to get some folks in Orange County to bring it up to the Bay Area.

Orange County and San Diego aren't exactly right next to each other.
Hope they are good friends or owe you a favor. That's 3 hours of driving
to get the stuff before ever heading north.

we have it covered. A friend goes from the bay area to OC every two
weeks, and San Diego will be a drive.
there is a Ghirardelli store in San Diego, and I'm out of my stash.
Need I say more. (And my buddy can't make it to the mother ship w/o a
big trip, so guess who rates... Al does).

I don't think where you buy Ghirardelli matters much anymore. Its
probably about the same in the local super market as any Ghirardelli store.

definitely not what I buy. I'd not be buying from them if I could find
the same elsewhere.
I'm not buying the retail stuff, but drops of milk chocolate, which is
the best I've found. I can't buy mail order anymore either.

I'm volunteering to go get the diskettes and convey them to Al for
copying if possible. I contacted the seller and he is amenable to that.
I don't have the means to transport the pile, my van is tied up right
now, but hope this doesn't go to the dump.
Let me know
I'll drive down and get the diskettes, and have them hand carried by a
fellow to Al, so they will be well cared for.
Andrew? Wish I could get the thing for the Z80 SCSI to IDE converter
board, but I just don't have the space to do so.
