I have a question about the VCF East Swap Meet happening on 2/26 - will there be a free table? I have some things, like a non-working VIC-20, that I would not sell, but would be happy to leave for taking?

Just a heads up to folks who frequently repair VIC-20s and C64s - Jameco has some old stock of 2114 SRAMs (Intel brand) that they are clearing out (10% discount applied in cart). It is still more expensive from Jameco (even with 10% for clearance) than from Unicorn, but some folks prefer...

I am in NJ, looking for an HP Vectra CS portable. Broken and yellowed is fine and almost preferred as I enjoy fixing and retrobrighting. Thanks

I am sure folks here already know, but in case you haven't, the Mini PET is up for pre-order and shipping in about 2 weeks. https://www.thefuturewas8bit.com/mini-pet.html You can grab a new motherboard for your PET that uses the PET power supply, monitor, and keyboard or a standalone kit with...

Spotted this on Facebook marketplace (see the attached picture) and had to post it just for the outrage. Also someone needs to tell the seller that the keyboard alone would go for 3X what he or she is asking for the whole thing. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/258004695330568/

I have a CP/M small board computer based on the Z180. It has two UARTs built in: ASCII-0 and ASCII-1. I use ASCII-0 for the terminal and ASCII-1 for file transfers. I can transfer files to PC/MAC no problem via ASCII-1, but when I try to transfer files (XMODEM or XMODEM-1) from the MAC/PC to...

A long time ago I got a large lot of vintage ICs from an estate sale and finally got to sorting them out. If anyone here needs parts for a project, you can have them for the cost of shipping since they are untested unless it has an asterisks which means it is a ceramic gold package and I might...

I recently lost my glasses and have switched to a nearly 20 year old pair while I wait for my new pair to arrive. When I put the old pair on I immediately noticed that the lenses, despite being a lower prescription, were heavier and felt like real glass as opposed to plastic. Even though the...

Working Zenith SuperSport 8088 laptop. Includes power brick, battery, and carrying case. $50 shipped East of the Mississippi $65 shipped West of the Mississippi Works like a treat. XT Hard Drive boots to DOS. Floppy has been tested and I can verify that it works. Cosmetically great except for...

Interesting PET64 just sold on eBay. It looks to have no internal speaker or SID from the factory. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F392242421415 Every site I’ve found with information on the PET64 indicates they all shipped with sound.

Hardly ever see these anymore. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F153391135123

Working disk image of Orbquest would be fine. Working physical disk also fine if actually working.

I am not new to the IIGS, Ive owned and used one for years BUT Ive never tried programming on it and I finally have some time to look into it and have a couple of questions: I presume the BASIC in ROM is identical to AppleSoft BASIC in other Apple IIs (no support for added memory, etc.)? But...

I am attempting to resurrect a modded 128 that I acquired on the cheap (yes it is filthy to boot). See the picture attached. Ignoring the normal bodge wire on the z80 from the factory, what is the other mod with wires going into the board near R27 in the middle, down by U37 at the bottom, etc...

$40 plus shipping. Working 1571. Was my second drive, so it is configured as drive "9" however you can easily change it back to "8" via the DIP switches on the back. See pictures and screenshots. I always test with educational software that I've acquired over the years, because those disks...

This Atari STE was shipped to me without any packing materials and the upper case shattered. It is quite ugly, but it works (floppy too). If someone would like it as a project machine I will sell it for $50 plus shipping. I've had plans to find a new case and restore it, but my rule of thumb is...

Wondering Tandy ever OEMed the 1000 series. This Panasonic looks suspiciously identical to a Tandy TL. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F183648899393

Anyone have a clue what is on the Skyles Electronic Works ROM upgrade? One of my local, vintage computer merchants in NJ added this to their online store: https://edsgoodstuff.com/edscart/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=130_185&products_id=7884&zenid=sponkgstlqeveius4sqsrvp3g4 Is it...

Not sure if the aftermarket keyboard should increase or decrease the value. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F202563359334 More than I would pay, but certainly more rare than later models.

Lot includes: Four 1MB 30 pin SIPPs (4MB total, tested works) One 1287 (date code 2/95, NOS?) One 12887A+ (date code 6/05, NOS?) $50 takes it all, free shipping in the US. Open to reasonable offers. SIPPs are hard to find. The realtime clocks were sold to me as NOS, not pulls, and the pins...
