Sigh! The time has come to do some closet emptying. I've looked at sales on e-bay and elsewhere, and I'm inclined to think that the completed-auction prices I'm seeing probably aren't worth the listing effort and cost. Looking around, I found this group, which looks like a good place to offer.
What I'd hope for is someone to take the whole shot of what I need to move out. If that kind person decides that there are some valuable trinkets to be sorted out and moved onward, more power to them.
The major hardware item is the Heath/Zenith ZF-151-52 that I started out with in 1985. It came with one memory board, so 320K. Later I added an AST Six-Pack Plus board to fill out the memory to 640K. The Six-Pack Plus board also provided an additional parallel port, serial port, a game port, and a clock/calendar with battery. I also added a Western Digital hard drive controller and an 8087 coprocessor. I replaced the original BIOS with a later one (P/N -18, dated 1990). The "A" drive was replaced long ago. The "B" drive might be the original.
There is an amber monochrome monitor, ZVM-122-A. There is the original Zenith keyboard (Selectric-style L-shaped RETURN key). There is an IBM Graphics Printer (Epson 9-pin printer), with several unused ribbons. There are probably a few other things that I haven't unburied yet.....
