Hi Steve,

Here are a few pics I just took:

I didn't have a tripod and I guess my hands weren't particularly
steady tonight :)  I'll try to get some better pictures this weekend
but hopefully these will give you some idea.

I'm waiting for the MicroDrive to arrive from ReactiveMicro so I'm
limited to programs on the 3.5" floppies so no pictures from the GSOS
side.
