But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment

9/10 I got one of the consoles wrong.
I remember the beastie in question 6 all too well since it was a standard IBM XT 286 desktop in a "luggable" case and at the time I worked as a hardware engineer for an IBM dealership. I fixed dozens of them.
The only non standard parts were the CRT tube, modified housing for the system unit and a couple of swivels on a standard IBM keyboard.
Unreliable buggers since everything came unseated including the RAM chips when being lugged.
I resurrected a couple of Commodore Pets for a museum a few years ago, that was quite a challenge. Fortunately I still had parts from when I worked for a library mainframe company that used them for branch backup units in the event of comms failures.Comment
