Stephen:
I'm not "jumping at the bit", but if you should NOT find another person
who is interested in the Osborne I & II systems, I would be interested.
It's not a priority to me, but I would not want to see them go to the
junk pile, and would be able to take them if nobody else is interested
in taking them.
Would you have any discs / manuals that go with the Osborne systems?
Also, when you say boxes of "parts", would it be just computer-level
parts (boards, etc), or might it be at the component level (Z80's, 74xx
TTL parts, passives, etc)? If you have components, I might also be
interested in those. If you could provide info / photos, that would help.
I have friends down in the Manchester area, so if it was necessary to
(re)move these items quickly, I could make a few calls and get a friend
to pick the items up... or else I will probably be down in
Concord/Manchester NH area sometime in Sept/Oct and could make
arrangements with you for pickup.
THANKS for considering my interest.

Hello all,
I am winnowing down my collection of Vintage Computer stuff to make space for other
storage needs, and to make life a little easier on those who I will eventually leave
behind.
I have the following stuff available for free to pickup in the Manchester NH area:
- Sun Sparc Classic, with hard disk, CDROM drive, keyboard, some documentation, very
large Sun video CRT.
- Power Macintosh 7200, with keyboard
- Power Macintosh 7300, with keyboard
- Osborne I (3 inch screen)
- Osborne II (5 inch screen)
- a couple of original Macintosh powerbook laptops
- Tandy 2800 laptop (286 + 287, EGA LCD screen), plus another for spare parts
- some sort of Toshiba laptop
- Macintosh Powerbook clamshell, with USB, Firewire, & CDROM drive
- boxes of books & parts & cables
I have a few photos of these as currently stored in my basement. All “working when put
into storage”. The basement is dry and dehumidified. I cannot vouch for working
condition today because of decaying capacitors and internal batteries over the past 15-20
years.
I would greatly appreciate someone to take the entire lot.
I just do not have the energy to go through the eBay Selling & shipping with all this
stuff.
If anyone is interested, please email me and we talk and I can provide the few photos and
my address for pickup.
