Too bad it's too far away for me.

I finally got around to unpacking a Datapoint 1560 system that has been lying around in my
basement crawl space since the late 80's gathering dust.
After a good cleaning and resetting of boards and connectors it looks in great shape, BUT
the Monitor "Sparked and Smoked" when I turned it on. I haven't turned on
the disk subsubsystem yet.
Anyways, I am able to take it with me when we head down to Wickenburg AZ, for the winter,
and wondering if that Computer Museum (or anyone else) may want to give it a new home?
I'm still looking for the Diskettes and Manuals.
I also have a MINX Monitor.
