[rescue] Tatung COMPstation 10 (or maybe 20?)

[CJ Reha]

Hey Alex,

Tomorrow I’ll take good photos of the inside of the one I got from the
pile. Interestingly the board looks quite different from yours so they are
certainly different models. This is exciting, I had never even heard of
these before!

If you recall I got the Axil with it…that machine ended up being very badly
mouse bombed. They appear to have specifically concentrated on top of the
very high pin density Motorola ASICs and it doesn’t look good…but I’ll
borrow the museums ultrasonic and maybe say a prayer or two. At least I can
dump ROMs!

Will also get measurements for the front panel and trim pieces (if any) to
hopefully make your 3D modeling easier.

Take care,
CJ
