vintage computers for pick-up in austin, tx

[Jim Battle]

I decided to give away most of my collection.  I just don't have the 
time anymore to play with any of it, and the thought of wrapping this 
all for ebay gives me convulsions.

The condition is (please read carefully, and sorry for shouting):

No, I can't ship.  Sorry.  Really.  I'm not going to do it.  The sooner 
you pick it up the better, as I might loose my mind and decide to keep 
it all.

If there is interest from more than one person, I reserve the right to 
parcel things up how I see fit.  If you have some special connection or 
need for any of these items, let me know and I'll take it into 
consideration.


(1) IBM 5120.  BASIC-only.  Dual 8" disk drives.  Works.  Needs 
terminator to allow the disk drives to work (the terminator is built 
into the printer that is daisy-chained off the expansion bus, but when I 
bought the 5120, I didn't want to pay for shipping a hundred pound dot 
matrix printer with it).  Has manuals and a few floppies.


(2) An Apple II+, and Apple IIe with an accelerator card (3.5 MHz), a 
bunch of floppies, some games new in box, joysticks, a few disk drive 
units, a few cards


(3) Northstar Horizon, in the aluminum case.  With one 5.25" drive, one 
10 MB (I think) hard drive.  Works.  Currently turbodos is installed and 
is working, but I have turbodos, hdos, and normal nsdos disks available 
too.  I have a number of manuals for it as well.


(4) A Sage II computer.  Dual 5.25' floppies.  This is a 68000-based 
system.  Works.  Boot media too.


(5) A PT Helios disk system and controller board set.  This doesn't 
work, but I believe is repairable.  These were touchy to begin with, so 
it would take a lot of perseverance and some skill to get it going again.


(6) Two Sol-20s.  Both have been tricked out with Hogg Labs upgrades to 
80x24 text, and relocation of the monitor roms to F000 (switchable). 
Both had their keypads replaced and work fine.  This will come with a 
large collection of manuals, pretty much everything that is on www.sol20.org


(7) TRS-80 Model 4P.  That is the luggable model.  Works.  Perhaps I can 
find some boot disks.


Thanks.
