Pacific Northwest Two 70s/80s Single Board Computers: KIM-1/KIMSI/S100 and Ferguson Big Board

[pitz]

Delivery Options

Local Pickup Only

In clearing out my garage retro workspace, I'm looking to sell two 70s/80s single board computers in project cases. One is a MOS/Commodore KIM-1 in a project case, having a KIMSI backplane, and a few S-100 cards. I think a couple of them are memory cards. Having left it idle for so long with many of the wiring likely getting disconnected, I hesitate to put power on it unless someone has the time and chops to do it in a more careful way. Original MOS KIM-1 manuals (User Manual, Hardware Manual, Programming Manual) and some magazines included.

The second project case is a very clean Z80 Ferguson Big Board with two 8" diskette drives. Also untested after sitting unpowered for many years. I first mistook these to be diskette drives that connect to the KIM-1 project case, and now remembered that it is a standalone project in itself. This case is real HEAVY, because of the diskette drives.

All are untested after being unpowered for many years and they are sold as-is. Let me know if you need additional pictures. The boards have all the chips in place.

$800-1000 for both or best offer. Prefer local meet up in the Portland, Oregon area, unless we can figure out a way to ship them insured in a couple of 20x20x20 boxes. The Ferguson Big Board is heavy and may cost a lot to be shipped.

Looks like the Ferguson Big Board also has the Ferguson 256K RAM expansion module/board and the 4MHz speed up mod.
