I have actually written code for the TI 980
(when I worked for TI) back in the 70s.
(Do you have the DX980 OS?
and a compiler for the "P/L-EXUS III" language?
just wondering...)
I probably would not know what to do with it, but you
might want to contact the TI alumni association,
(which I am - or, "was" - a member of),
someone there might really provide a good home for
that item of equipment!
