I have worked on these and the electronics is almost always working, or easily repaired. The mechanical can cause problems depending on how much "time" it has on the clock mechanics. No XTAL in these as the drive is external. The case is hermetic and has dessicant inside. Cheers, Corby Dawson

Somebody must have really wanted this thing—sold for over $800!

Yes I saw the same thing. $825. Wow! Plus the old shipping on top. Happy birthday to someone. What was interesting was the ebait and switch email last night. Blah blah available so I was curious to see how it was going. They showed some hp audio generator. Oh sorry that item sold so we gave you this instead. Sad day in ebait land.
