[QuadList] Fwd: In Search Of a Classic Quad Machine for display

[Ted Langdell]

And Good Morning from Waikiki.

Arose to find this message from the other side of the United States,  
in regard to a Quad machine for display.

I've mentioned two possibilities in a reply.  If you have something  
or know of something suitable for CEI's display, please get in touch  
with Larry at his e-mail below, and keep the list posted about what  
goes on.

Aloha,

Ted
