I've been helping a friend setup a Pinball repair business in Ottawa, but he was 
reaching a crisis in which he was forced to swap-in known-good MPUs for bad 
ones, with the "bad" pile starting to get out of hand, since his technician was 
struggling to repair them.

But then I thought about my 9010A setup.  After many years just gathering dust 
in my basement, I finally got off my butt and got my 9010a with 6800 pod setup 
and used it to restore full functionality to a bunch of these dead Bally and 
Stern Pinball MPUs.  I was most impressed with how the 9010a helped me isolate 
the problems with these boards!

My friend would now like to extend this approach to Gottlieb and Williams 
pinball MPUs, but as I only have the 6800 pod, looked into getting more pods.  I 
found that in the last few years, the supply of pods on ebay at least seems to 
have dried up.  I am looking for 6502, 6802 and 6809 pods.  Would anyone on the 
list be able to help me out by selling me any of these pods (obviously, working 
condition is _vastly_ preferred!).

An aside: Is it possible to convert my 6800 pod to run with one of the other 
CPUs?  I'm not familiar with the details, but vaguely recall that one can 
substitute CPUs on some pods.

Please email me if you have one of these pods sitting idle, and would be willing 
to sell it.  Thanks so much!
