Damn, if I didn't know better, I'd be sure that was this dinky little
computer store that was around the corner from the college I attended in
Flint, MI back in the mid-90's (GMI Engineering, for anyone who cares...).
That guy had more old micros than I've seen anywhere before (and since I
scrounge an awful lot at any number of electronic surplus places and
hamfests, that's saying something). 

We *almost* bought an old IBM System/36 box off the guy once, since he
focused on micros and really wanted to get rid of the IBM.  Of course, our
main goal was for a new endtable for the house :)
