I don't know if anyone else saw this, but I thought I'd post it here since it's technically a 68K Powerbook (side note: We should probably have a forum dedicated to discussion of unreleased &prototype devices and software). 

Pretty neat to see it in action. I posted on the YouTube video that they need to get on the Macintosh Repository and Macintosh Garden forums, so we can get the software off of it.

Wow!  I remember seeing photos and wishing I could find one. It’s really an amazing piece of hardware and software.

Didn’t Hap get one of those like some time ago?

He was going to get stuff off the built in hard drive but I lost track if he ever got that far.

I think it is his. The pictures of the inside look the same from haps original post about it. I even saw this on Macrumors!

Now that you guys mention it, yep, definitely @haplain's W.A.L.T. - the 1.01a handwriting matches. 

Glad to see that they were able to get the hard drive up and running! Hap, you gotta get a copy of that HD made before it croaks permanently!
