<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Everyone:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We’re just finishing replacing 3 separate Strand Premiere systems from 1997 with a different control system. Very happy with the installation process by Field Service.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">1. Anyway, the upside is I’ve got LOTS of Premiere button stations (single, 8 button, LCD) as well as the disk drive units and power supplies. Strand seems to (or “seemed” to) like screwing components to the back of the box, so I can’t
just send a rack-mount unit (unfortunately).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">2. I also have a complete Premiere unit (wall mount box, processor, drive (I think, I would need to check)) purchased used as back-up in case of system failure before the upgrades were complete. (purchased used, but never been out of the
box here)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">3. I have boxes of Maxell 3.5” floppy disks used for the Premiere and the old LBX strand desk we used to use. 4 boxes of 10 disks, brand new, never opened. Double Sided / Double Density.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Also a bunch (more than 20) of used DSDD floppies.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any takers?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m willing to take something in trade (a box of bulbs or some gobos) for the used Strand components and floppy disks. I think the full Strand processor kit should have a price, but I don’t know what it is. Make me an offer.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks very much everyone.<o:p></o:p></p>
