Yep, the computer that could've saved Osborne Corp. the second time IF it had made it to market in time.
This unit is very clean and works perfectly.
When I first got it, the latching floppy doors were a bit sticky, but working them open and closed a few times freed them up.
I booted with a stock MS-DOS 3.3 disk. Made a copy form A: to B: then booted with the copy and made a copy of the supplemental disk (GW-BASIC). Everything worked perfectly.
Items included:
Osborne Encore (duh!),
Power supply
Copies of MS-DOS 3.3
box of 360K diskettes with labels (BASF)
The computer will be shipped with the shipping blanks in the drives.
Asking $350 + shipping from Amarillo, TX 79121.
I'll also go with local pickup if someone is in the area.
Will keep this offer open for 1 week (until 16 June) then it goes to ebay.
