It ain't going anywhere.  But it's also missing the keyboard
connector.  Was this one Josh's?

And most important - who's the monkey??

It is identical, just wider on one side by a few inches. The plasma
screen is the same.

I suspect an earlier version.

I have a pair of them, but one is the oddball rectangular type. Being
the completist jerk that I am, I need both.

I got mine off of eBay about 2.5 years ago for I think $80?  It needed 
some repairs to the keyboard connector (some monkey had wrenched it 
off).  I ended up trading it away...

It was working a few years ago but it's currently dead and I'm not
optimistic; power supply issues - but there also seems some kind of
'blotchiness' inside the plasma display sandwich itself - like
something has delaminated or leaked or something.

If you find a small herd of them I'd certainly be interested in
getting hold of another one.
