Hi, I have a mystery S-100 computer that I'm would like to sell, from the estate of the late Ken Gielow (author of Z80DIS, a great Z80 disassembler).
The proceeds will be donated to a non-tax-deductible magic group Ken was a long-time member of. The computer is located in Cupertino, CA (aka "the heart of Silicon Valley", in the S.F. Bay Area). (If reopened, you can combine a pickup with a visit to the Computer History Museum in nearby Mountain View, CA! :) This would likely be quite expensive to ship. I'd guess 30+ pounds. Photos and some info at: www.sieler.com/ken_photos Some of the hardware (also listed on the above page): ThinkerToys buss unknown semi-transparent front panel spare/uninstalled Ithaca Intersystems DPS-1 front panel 10 various boards inside metal case (heavy) There may be manuals on some of the boards and/or the Ithaca, but I'm not sure yet. (They would be included, if they exist.) I wanted to take photos of each board, but having been seated for about 40 years, they don't come out if I tug gently. None have integrated board lifters, unfortunately (I tried a boroscope, but could not get useful photos.) Based on the labels on some EPROMS, there's a chance that it's a homebrew TRS-80 clone, with both Level II BASIC and CBASIC, and may have Morrow DISCUS software on it. We're looking for an offer on either: - the Ithaca Intersystems front panel; - the computer with all the boards or both. Suggestions welcome, thanks!
