[ont.general] Wanted....

I have had this HEATHKIT H8 machine for about two years now, and I've
  decided that it's time to do something with it.
Does anyone know where I can find a couple of USED floppy drives
  that are compatible with the strange heathkit 50-pin bus? I ask 
  for USED drives 'cuz my budget is tight.
I am also interested in finding a supplier of HEATHKIT H8 compatible
  boards (memory, serial interfaces, etc.) because HEATHKIT prices are
  too steep for my taste. [So why did I buy an H8 in the first place
  you ask...well, I was 'loaded' and inexperienced at the time...].
Does anyone have any idea of the amount of messing around one has
  to do to get CP/M to run on an H8 (Does the 1K panel monitor get in the
  way?).
             
 
                         Regards,
                         Marcus Leech
PS: Almost forgot, I'm intereseted in a local supplier of requested items
    if possible--preferrably within Ontario, Canada.
