Nice! It's not quite as old-skool, but I love the Xeltek SP280U that I
"stumbled into" as well. Old enough to handle 21-volt EPROMs like 2732,
etc. but new enough to work with Windows 10 (as long as you're willing to
use a slightly-hacked driver :)

[M100] New Toy

It's not often you stumble on a piece of retro equipment that truly is "New in 
the box" as listed. But I just had that happen. Picked up an ART EPP-1F EPROM 
programmer still sealed in the original plastic. Same as Rick used in the 
pictures on the Club100 romware page. Works perfectly reading and writing 
EPROMs for my NEC 8201s. I've been meaning to get one of these rather than send 
out to have my code burned by someone else. Sure there are plenty of newer 
options out there, but the old-school feel is priceless.
