XL software and newer has photo hunt...and erotic photo hunt. ;D
Working Megatouch machines just don't sell cheap. :-\
I paid $275 for my first one (Gold XL). It was filled with roach crap and the monitor died a month later.
I probably have $150 in the 2nd one, but I didn't buy the whole machine, just a mobo & i/o board (marked as-is), & a new power supply.
Lucked out and got the touch monitor for $60.
There is a seller on fleabay who sells Platinum hard drives that work with any XL key.
That is what I have running on both machines.
I saw a nice Megatouch Ruby (next generation past XL) sell for $350 right after I bought the old roach crap filled one.
You can't smell the item on fleabay. :'(

They use a standard AT power supply (but of course they'll charge you more for a "megatouch power supply").
They also sell ATX to AT adapters if you have extra PC power supplies laying around.
Not sure how the switch works on those though since the AT supplies just use an on/off switch.
The AT power supply also has the pass-through for the monitor cord.
There is nothing to keep you from reversing the two motherboard power connectors, so pay close attention to which one is on which side. (take a pic)
I've rebuilt a couple of the XL series machines.
I think I've had most problems you can have with them, so ask away if you have any issues. ;D
Skeptic73:
I have a couple touch controllers on eBay if you're looking. Also I have a box of hard drives and keys for Megatouch mostly Ion and Force software. Let me know if you're interested and I'll get a list together.
