Looks like both of Bob's went to the LCM; I remember there was another L9000 rescued in California years ago, but maybe that's the one you have now.

One or two older ones out east (RICM?) but not too many left, especially in actual working condition. A shame IMO, an area of computing that's not been preserved or even documented very well.
