Will trade for something interesting of similar value. I've got an unwanted Freescale MPC8315E-RDB here on my desk. It has been unpacked and repacked once, but is otherwise absolutely new - nothing has even been changed on the hard disk. Specs for the kit are <http://www.freescale.com/files/32bit/doc/fact_sheet/ MPC8315ERDBFS.pdf> and in more detail at <http://www.micetek.com/ englishweb/product/new/PQIIproDevelopmentProducts/MPC8315E-RDB.htm>. It's a pretty high-end board - 2 SATA channels, dual gigabit Ethernet, 400MHz CPU, one PCI Express, one miniPCI Express, USB 2.0, etc. What this sheet doesn't make clear is that the kit is in fact a complete boxed "retail ready" NAS box with a 160GB SATA hard disk; a black slimline micro-ATX case with an internal 12V inverter so you can power the whole thing off a car battery (or the included 12V AC adapter). If you tinker with the preloaded Linux distro you can use it as-is. All the cables and dev software are included. I thought I was going to use this $499 development kit, but realistically I'll never have time. I'd entertain any trades of fun lab hardware. I'm interested in any low-end DSO with computer connectivity so I can capture low-speed traces for publication purposes. Or a spectrum analyzer in the 500MHz range. Or a handheld scopemeter. I'd also trade for a Sinclair ZX80, in fact that would be my first choice :)
(US-NY) PowerPC NAS development kit for trade

BTW, it's a TS1000 not the Sinclair, if that makes a difference.

AlsoKit vs. assembled doesn't matter, but the TS1000 is a US-market ZX81, not a ZX80. I have many many TS1000s and ZX81s, but my collection lacks the original ZX80.
