PAT 900 or PAT 9000? (I never heard of a PAT 900)

They are all the same. I sent copies of the manual to Al and Clay.

Things to make sure you get:

        - both 44-pin game cables (with round connectors on the ends)
        - All the personality modules that he has (get a list).. The
          tester isn't much good without the personality modules..
          You want duplicates if you can get them (so you can power up
          duplicate boards..)
        - does it come with the 13" monitors? Should be a 13" raster
          and a 13" color vector..

I can supply a manual if it doesn't have one.

And yes, they are VERY heavy and take up a LOT of bench space..
