I've been offered an Adam complete with manuals,
etc. Fairly decent
condition, as far as I can tell.
The seller knows nothing about it, and is willing to part with it at any
price (even free). I wouldn't want to cheat him, though. What would be a
fair price to offer?
Thanks

Well it is a Coleco Adam . . . . and if it has a flopy drive and the
printer then it migh be worth a few bucks -- if not it really isn't worth
anything except as a paperweight. The data tapes have to be pre-formatted,
and I don't know if that is possible on the bare Adam.
FWIW, Adam Osborne was the guy who did the Osborne 1 and the Exec, two early
luggables. Now they are useable after a fashion, as they are cp/m machines.
