Slot 1 is empty, but the rest of the slots are stocked with a Datalink 2400, TranswarpGS 12.5MHz/32K cache, Sonic Blaster, 2 AE 3.5 drives, PCTransporter with 720/360K drives and a Vulcan Gold 40MB HD. The monitor is a 20" Sony multisync sitting on an AE Conserver. Yeah, it's all AE.

Starting in Slot 1, the machine has an Uthernet, SecondSight, ZipGS 10/64, Soundmeister, SuperDrive controller, CFFA3000 and finally a RAMFast SCSI card with CD-ROM, ~2GB on tap. The monitor is a standard Apple RGB on a Kensington System Saver.

I'd keep system "B" on my desk.  More connectivity, as it's already
been pointed out.
Overall more useful, as opposed to the "neato" AE factor....but not
quite as useful.

PS..that storage must be getting full...just ship it to me...I'll even
pay for the shipping for you!!! ;)
