I do. I always wanted to turn it into a semi-portable UNIX machine
It's a VT100 with a 4-slot Q-bus backplane inside
(!).
Some even had TU-58's in the front.
There's a paddleboard in
the STP slot that links to 2 ports on a DLV11-J (4-port RS232) card in
the backplane.
*That* I don't have. :-(
The VT100 becomes the console for whatever processor
you
stick in the Q-bus, while the connector on the back is a normal serial
port, also on the Q-bus system...
For compact systems, the MXV-11 also works with the paddle card - two ports
and some memory.
