    Subscription Emails

    I am subscribed to the for sale and wanted forums. I only receive emails from the wanted forum. I've checked my SPAM and have even switched email accounts but no joy. I've also reviewed my settings on the forum control panel and everything appears ok. Any suggestions?

    Model 4 Non-GA Garbage at power on

    My apologies to @David Multimer as I missed his reply..... Got back down to the shack this morning and pulled the NOP and replaced the original Z80. I still get garbage on start-up: However, upon initial power-on it seemed that the garage was moving around the screen a bit. This repeats on...

    Tandy 1000EX - 256K - No Floppy Drive

    I have a very nice Tandy 1000EX computer that has had the floppy drive removed. It has the stock 256K of memory. The computer itself has next to no yellowing. I even have the original box, which is quite yellow and some of the original manuals. I bought it as part of a bigger lot. Make me...

    Looking for some guidance on picking up a IIgs

    I've been thinking for a while now that I'd like to obtain a decent IIgs system. The Apple II series was popular when I was in middle school. At that time, I was chugging away on my TI99/4a or my Commodore 64. As a result I'm not versed in the various options I'm finding online. For...

    Old-school BBS and Shareware

    Back in the day I was a FidoNet BBS SysOp. Man, I miss those days. We did with computers and modems basically what the internet does with IP addressess. Anyway, I was digging through my garage, and found a couple of CD's full of shareware that I used to have on my BBS. That gave me the...

    Amiga A-500 & Extras

    Serial #226165 Good condition. Case is showing some yellowing. I bought this off of ebay some time ago. I'd never done anything with an Amiga, and was curious. Unfortunately, I've never gotten around to learning much about it. It does power on, and I have booted some of the software that...
