This looks like a great candidate for a well-documented restoration -- I'll
be taking a ton of photographs and will welcome any and all suggestions and
pointers to parts, etc.
Thanks!

Very good!
Now Tony, you have the responsibility to completely photograph this
machine
and try to find a correct keyboard and PSU. Some of us will
appreciate
seeing the photos and comments to learn (or relive!) this
interesting
machine. I know I'll keep an eye cocked for the parts to help get
this
machine restored. And to think this machine was only about 3 or 4
hours
drive from here!
Good luck with it :)
Regards, Chris

Tony Eros was the first to respond (by 90 minutes), and
so claims
the
computer. Thanks for all the offers -- I really
didn't want to see
this
computer junked.
Christian: [re your query] The machine has been sitting in an
office as
is for a while. I imagine the missing parts got
Dumpstered(tm)
long ago,
unfortunately.
