Not sure if this is a complete unit or not, but perhaps for $0.99
some Burroughs collector is interested.

If its large and ~50lbs then the shipping seems reasonable.

Yeah, that box is the size of an external 5 1/4" floppy drive, and weighs only
slightly more. The power supply is external (and not included). More units would plug
together on either side - one of which is a 5 1/4" floppy drive. I've had pieces
of this kind of system before, but never enough to actually turn it on. Everything is
modular, and it never stays together.

Worse is that all the parts are in separate auctions. Pitty the person
who wants it to work and doesn't win all the auctions.
is this like the Convergent Technology boxes? I forget what is involved
in this system.

This guy has been posting this stuff for months. The only useful system is the $250 one
that
actually has the disk with software on it. You need a bunch of things he hasn't been
listing. And, all of his shipping prices are too high.

I asked for a list of what they had and here's the response.
This was last year before the shipping was high
I did get a power supply and cable but then the shipping went
through the roof.

the new ebay charge structure kicked in, and that may be why the
shipping costs are so high, don't know.
