    One other KOOL thing?

    In that picture posted above, see the rack that has the dual circular tape drives (those were DEC Tape - yet another story there). Anyways, the RACK that portion of the computer was installed in was precisely the right size that stereo equipment (back then ALL good equipment had rack mount fascia’s, etc) would fit.

    I scored a surplus rack and it was - for about 5 years - how my system was setup. Everything bolted in securely, whole thing on casters. Shelf for the turntable (at the time my Rega Planar 3). Alas, when I got married, my wife was like: “that’s UGLY and is NOT going in our hose… so sold it).

    But it was killer KEWL to behold. A 6 foot rack chock full of amplifier, preamp, tuner, CD, two Nakamichi Cassettes, turntable, etc.
    Wish I still had it
