Another eBait wonder:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/182597510806
The listing says "Local pick-up only", and it's in Denver, Colorado.
Someone
should really save this (although the chances of finding all the boards to go
with it is pretty slim).

It looks like it would, but it's at best just a conversation piece because
it was flakey when it was replaced 35 years ago and has had who knows what
care and mistreatment since.... Unless I'm missing something...

How does one end up with a KL10 backplane anyway?
"This backplane used to be installed in one of two DECsystem 20 units we had
deployed at Agfa Gevaert in Munich, Germany. I was the field service
engineer in charge of this site. We had to replace this backplane with a new
one back in the late 1980s due to some intermittent problems and I was able
to keep the replaced item as a souvenir."
