    Wanted: IBM RT PC. Dead or Alive.

    Even just a few choice parts of an RT machine would be great. Several months ago, I found the remains of what I surmise were 2 RT systems, but their cases, system boards, power supplies, and various other organs and limbs had already met a grisly fate. I managed to salvage the processor boards...

    Apple II Plus motherboard

    Anybody know where I can find a high-quality image (line drawing, photo, whatever) of an Apple II Plus motherboard? Ideally I'd like it to be plan view (bird's-eye view). I just want to map the board. Thanks!

    Intel 387 SX on a 40-pin SIMM

    This is really just one of those idle-curiosity questions... I've found a 387SX mounted on a little PCB with a 40-pin SIMM connector. The PCB is labeled "NUMERIC SIMM." Does anybody know what device(s) used this?

    IBM 5160 - Dishwasher time?

    I recently got an IBM 5160 from a local recycler. (Yes, apparently people are still taking these things to the recycler!) The exterior of the box looked pretty clean, so I figured it would be a quick and pleasant little weekend project to open it up, inspect it, get rid of the dust bunnies, and...

    Testing Apple IIc Monitor

    I'd like to test an Apple IIc CRT monitor, but I have no other Apple equipment of any kind. I know the monitor would take composite video input from the computer it was designed to accompany. Does that mean I can give it any NTSC composite video input (e.g., from a VCR) to test it? Thanks!

    WTB: IBM GXT2000P Graphics Accelerator

    Does anybody have an IBM GXT2000P card they'd like to sell? This is one of the PCI graphics cards for the RS/6000 43P Models 140 / 150 / 260 (workstations). There are some listed on eBay, but I thought I'd see if anybody here wanted to get rid of one first. Thanks!

    Apple IIe 80-Column Text Card / 64KB RAM

    Does anybody need one of these? I can trade for something of comparable value (could really use some 5.25" SSDD or DD floppies, for example) or sell for $10 including shipping. Thanks. EDIT: Price = $5 + shipping Sorry -- set my price too high originally. Should have done more research first. :/
