Hi,
I have just inherited a lot of vintage computers from my father-in-law who was an avid collector for over 40 years.
All in all there are about 75 to 100 machines. They seem to come with various accessories and a lot of guide books incluing 3rd party written books. I would say there are arounf 500 accompanying books.
I was wondering where I start to process these and whoe might help me.
It may be that some of them have historical value, some may be worth money, or they may all be mass produced scrap from the 70s 80s and 90s. I have no idea.
I wonder if you guys might be able to comment?
