Heh. I've just spent the last hour looking for photos of some CDC machines to
compare against. Nothing :-/

Going by the timeframe, I'd guess it was one of the later CDC Cyber machines,
but the £1,000,000 question is which one...

Aaanyway, I've just bought a copy of "PET and the IEEE-488 interface" for a
little under £8 (due to arrive in a few days - mwahaha), not to mention the
big box of surplus electronic bits that cost me £55...

Speaking of which.. has anyone got some spare 10-32 bolts and locking
washers? I need at least ten of each. They seem to be like gold dust in the
UK - all the suppliers I've tried only carry the metric M-series and imperial
-BA series. Failing that, the contact details for someone in the UK that
stocks 10-32 hardware would be most appreciated :)

Later.
