Wow! Don't let the crusher get any of these machines. They are really nice
machines. For now, they aren't supported, but as soon as the 105A and 500
machines run, the 700 shouldn't be any problem.
Until then, you should put VMS on it :)

Too bad you're a bit far away, i would take one or more of those boxes. But
i think, there are enough enthusiasts to pick up all machines. They may not
die!
