There aren't many of them around. I just happened to get lucky when I found mine. I've seen one or two of them on Ebay, but the sellers never bother to test the printer.:mad:
 
Nice collection. No interest in the pre-DOS/Mac machines of the early 80's though? TRS-80, Apple II, Commodore PET/64/VIC 20, TI, CP/M Z80s etc. (I do note the Apple IIc).

Tez
 
Like I said, I forgot I have some of these.:)

Remembering now that I also have a complete Commodore 64 setup and A Radioshack TRS-80 Color Computer II. I haven't really used CP/M that much, but I do keep my eye out for anything Kaypro.
 
PS/@ Model 25

I have the original box that a PS/2 Model 25 came in. It has the original packaging and the keyboard box. Do you have any idea of anyone that might be interested? I live in Indiana.

And thanks to AppleIIfan, I got a Power Macintosh 5260, the same one I used in second grade. It works great, and will connect to the internet.

With a problem with the 5260's Control Panel and corrupted folders, I wiped the hard drive and installed OS 7.6.1. It works even better now.
 
Got some new pieces at the local E-Waste event this past Saturday.

And more sticks of RAM than I can handle!
 
Nice just noticed a velo 1. I have 2 of these, work awesome with xt-ce! ^_^ Makes one mighty small 8088 laptop! ;)

If your looking for a win ce 2.0 upgrade let me know I have 2 upgrades, and only use one. Its 2 cds I think, 2.0 rom and 8mb storage cards. Do you know the tin foil trick with nimh batteries?
 
Don't know if I mentioned it before, but I have a second Velo 1. I accidentally broke the screen on this one (not cracked, bu the video cable may have broke.)
I don't know the tin foil trick, what is it?
 
Same here, I bought 2 at the same time, one had a wonky screen tho. I used it for a while till it finally died, ribbon cable snapped sadly. The EL on both mine are pretty dead. Both had 2.0 upgrades, manuals, cds, etc. Even have an original box for one of them. :D

The tin foil trick is pretty easy...
When you open the battery compartment, notice the tab in the middle? Put a piece of super thin wire or tinfoil from the metal tab in the middle to the + terminal. Whatever method has to have just slight resistance otherwise you will need a 10ohm resistor or so, tin foil works perfect ;). Now if you insert NIMH batteries, they will charge and work like the original velo NIMH pack when plugged in or in a cradle. ;)
 
Yesterday, I got a very nice TRS-80 Model 4! It came with all the manuals, disks, more blank disks, a few accessories, and the Modem 1. It doesn't work right yet, the screen is filled with wavy lines. Hopefully that'll be fixed.
(I hate cell phone cameras.:))
