Um ... I have an MAI Basic 4 computer, complete with 2 removable disk drive units (ie small washing machines), a stack of disk packs and 4 or 5 terminals! Currently it's collecting rainwater and providing shelter to some opossums - but if anyone wants to crate and ship it you can have it! I never plug it in - it'd cause a brown-out in my area

One of my employers had a Nova-4 knock off. That was really fun to play with! Front panel switches and purty red lites!!!
