Original Kenbak-1 on Ebay

[falter]

I think this guy might be your man:

Commodore 8296 SK Computer - For parts or repair | eBay

The 6845 video chip and 1 other, otherwise complete. I powered it up and there is only a blank screen with no chirp. Fuse is good. These were very nice machines that included a swivel monitor and a separate keyboard.

He's from NS and has been unloading an absolutely massive number of Commodore and other machines for several years on ebay. Maybe it's not him but I can't imagine there are too many over the top Commodore collectors in NS.

I've not seen him unload any Kenbak stuff. You could use Worthpoint to look up old auctions. Won't give you the seller name though I don't think.

That's got to be him! "Scifi-man" in Middleton, Nova Scotia! Thanks a bunch! I'm trying to contact him through eBay (which isn't easy, eBay prohibits outside communication.)

Now if I could just find out who the "collector in Tennessee who wishes to remain anonymous" is. For over 10 years, people have talked about a Tennessee person who has a Kenbak-1. And there's rumors of two new Kenbak-1's recently surfacing, but that's supposed to be a secret.
