Thinking of selling some vintage computers (non-Amiga)

[Tenacious]

I'm thinking of selling off some of the hardware I've rescued over the years.  Anyone interested in non-Amiga stuff?

Up for consideration:

An IBM PC jr - comes with matching monitor, keyboard (not the chicklett kind), and parallel port side car.  I may have working 5.25 Dos disks for this if I can find them.

Hewlett Packard Hp-85 - this was Hps personal conputer from 1980.  It was an all-in-one design and very cool.  

An IBM 5150 - original PC updated with a hard drive.  I have the matching green monitor.

Macintosh LC II - pizza box color Macs with 68030 (I have 3 of these)

eOne - eMachines' Wintel all-in-one iMac look alike with matching kb and mouse (need new cable).

Osborne 1 - not working, will probably keep it anyway

All are in good cosmetic condition.  The eOne has a bad built-in CD drive.  The LCs have no hard drives.  The Hp needs it's gummy roller (in the tape drive) replaced.

Are there any other vintage nerds here besides me?

I never got into TRS-80s.  They ran a variant of CP-M, right?

Have Blessed Easter Morning Everyone!



Yes, reading your link, it seems there was TRS-dos and Basic (like most early 8-bits).  CP-M was standardized into the Model IV.

The Hp-85 (also with a custom OS and Basic) was a contemporary of these machines. I think CP-M could be added to the 85, 86 and 87.

My Hp-85s are in good condition and they have something of a cult following, too.  They seem to be collectable on eBay and a company in California sells refurbed 85s for somewhere in the $500 range (no kidding).  I'd want a chunk of change for one. Grin.

I was just about to put a C64 and 1541 on eBay, what an awful time to sell anything!  Maybe I should clean the basement next year. Grin.
