No, but on a related note I have several of their early 80s model CPM
mini-computers which are S-100 bus based machines.  I have a ton of
different interface cards (multi-port serial cards, parallel printer
cards, etc), several 8-inch disk drives, a twenty meg hard drive (doubt
if it works).  The systems are still working, and several years ago I
even wrote a CPM Basic based adventure game and distributed it on 8-inch
disks to fellow students in a micro-computer interfacing class I was
taking (the computers I got came from another student in the course who
saved them from a school's trash bin).

Anyway, if I can be of any help with anything, let me know.
