So my house sold yesterday after < 3 days on the market (the market here is nuts). I have about two months to move, so a bunch of stuff has to disappear.
Location is the Vancouver, BC, Canada region (Port Moody more precisely). Most of this stuff is larger and I'm not going to have a lot of time to pack & ship, so local pickup is expected. If there is competition for something I guess it goes to the one willing to offer the greater number of bucks, otherwise items are free as the alternative destination is recycling/scrap. Any bucks involved are not because I expect a lot (or anything), but just to sort out who 'values' it the most if there is multiple interest in an item. I reserve the right to be whimsical in any decision. The following is 'off-the-top-of-my-head', I haven't examined this stuff in awhile. If someone would like a photo of something, let me know. Additional stuff may filter out in the near future. ======== XTs IBM 5160 (XT) - CPU with one floppy and hard drive, but the hard drive is flaky (booted from floppy last time I checked) - clicky-keyboard with special coloured keycaps for some video-editing system, still functions as normal keyboard, missing one keycap (whatever is immed. below the RETURN key) - IBM 5151 green-phosphor monitor XT-class clone labeled "IDM Research X88 Turbo" not readily bootable, IIRC the 'multi-function' board was damaged by battery leakage, the hard drive is flaky on this one too, IIRC might be consider for parts/modules or as a base to complete an XT - with keyboard & amber-phosphor monitor ======== Macs Mac Quadra 605 / LC475 68040 pizza box - with ADB keyboard and mouse - no monitor Mac Performa 5300CD beige all-in-one, kind of the all-in-one predecessor to the original iMac - with ADB keyboard and mouse Mac PowerPC tower beige G3 - with ADB keyboard and mouse - no monitor yes, bland and unexciting, the redeeming point is it's kind of a "multi-medium machine": zip drive floppy drive CD-ROM drive SCSI bus IDE bus RS-232 USB ethernet some video/audio IO original iMac Rev A 'the very first iMac model', bondi-blue of course - complete with puck mouse, the proper keyboard and the proper 'clear' power cable - original Mac OS8 install media and box I think it has 40 or 60MB of memory but could really do with more - a couple of memory sticks were zapped as I was swapping them testing another machine. I'm not completely sure how many ADB keyboard/mouse sets there are, at least 2. ======== NTSC monitors 4 green-phosphor 12" NTSC monitors. I think 2 of them will go and I may hang on to 2. Typically used with late-70s / early-80's micros. I have to hang on to one of them to go with my SWTPC CT-1024 terminal, for example. One of them (NEC) was originally sold in a package with and used with an Apple II. ======== TRS-80s 2 or 3 TRS-80 CoCos TRS-80 Model 100 the laptop TRS-80 portable/luggable I'd have to check/confirm on this one, it was at the radio museum, if it's there it should go. ======== bonus circa-1980 colour TV, 13-14" If you really want the authentic (i.e. awful) RF-modulated-display experience from your vintage 80's micro, without the mass of a 17,19,21" CRT, this could be it. ================================= =================================
