    I have two 5.75" STD-bus card cages (cards, but requires +12V, +5V), 
one 9" chassis (can be powered, has Nixie tubes!), one 7.5" 
rack-mounted 6809 computer (can be powered), and another 7.5" racked 
6809 computer that can be powered.  All these things draw lots of 
power.

    They are in Nashua.  You are welcome to have them for free if they 
suit.
