Moving Sale (SF Bay Area, USA)

Well, it's finally happened. I've bought a house west of Seattle, and I'm going to be leaving the bay area. First things first: I am NOT getting out of classic computers! I'm taking a nice little core collection of microcomputers with me. That said, the move is going to be extremely expensive and I have a lot of stuff that I'm just not likely to ever get around to. Liquidating some stuff could save me thousands of dollars. So, it's time to try to pass it on. Everything here is located in Fremont, California, very close to I-880 and Decoto Road. It's in a garage for very easy access. Because of the craziness of moving, I'm very sorry to say that everything here is pick-up only. I cannot make the time to pack and ship. If you're remote and you'd like to get someone else who's local do some picking up for you, of course you're more than welcome. Anyway, I hate to do this, but it's time... First, the non-free stuff. I'd actually like some money for these. How much? I'll take reasonable offers. I'm not looking for eBay money. Seriously. Make an offer, the worst that could possibly happen is that I'll counter. - PDP-11/35. This is my semi-infamous restoration project that consumed much of my 2012. I very lovingly restored the power supply, backplanes, chassis, and front panel. The logic is almost certainly beyond repair. It needs a new set of cards. This system is housed in a full-height rack that has seen much better days. Includes a Diablo Series 30 drive, ECCO paper tape reader (not punch), and a DSD 440 8" floppy drive. I'll throw in a big huge pile of 8" floppies. - PDP-11/53. This is a nice half-height DEC rack with a PDP-11/53 card set in a PDP-11/23+ chassis, plus two working RL-02 drives. Will include 10 RL-02 packs. This is a nice setup. It pains me more to get rid of this than it does the 11/35, if I'm honest. (Drive heads are currently parked and secured!) Now, the cheap and/or free WORKING stuff. Just make a token offer to help defray some moving costs and I'll be thrilled. - MicroVAX 3800. Nice system. Used to belong to Lockheed Martin and once had Hubble Space Telescope pointing control software developer accounts on it! - Two AlphaServer DS20e systems and 4 SCSI storage arrays. Marginally classic, but come on, you know you want them. - TWO MicroVAX 3100 model 80s. Loud little beasts. Lots of small SCSI disks. Ideal doorstops. - AlphaStation 200 4/233. Cute little desktop. Works great! - Sun SPARCClassic. - Sun SPARC IPC. - Assorted Sun keyboards / mice. - SGI Octane. It's a perfectly nice system. No keyboard / mouse. It has texture RAM! - SGI R5000 Indy. Also no keyboard or mouse, sorry. At least these SGI systems are PS/2. - A C-One FPGA system. This is not technically classic, but it is neat. These were sold as a re-targetable FPGA system to emulate Commodore Amiga A500 among other systems. Had a minor following in the early 2000s before the project dried up. - Heathkit H-89. Had to do some minor power supply repair to get it working, but it works great now. Hard-sectored floppy drive. I'll throw in 6 hard sectored floppies. That's all I have! - Tandy TRS-80 Model 4. - Tandy Color Computer 3, still in the box! - No-name serial terminal. It's always good to have more of these, right? - Sharp PC5000 - TWO DEC Rainbows (one has a bad power switch), plus monitors and keyboards. - Panasonic Sr. Partner luggable computer. - Packard Bell 286 - 2 or 3 TI Silent 700 terminals. (I'm keeping a few, but I have an absurd number of these things) - Execuport 4000 printing terminal. - DEC LA100 printing terminal. - 90% working blue ADM-3a terminal. Needs some slight logic repair, should be an easy job. Finally, the stuff that DOES NOT WORK. I just want this gone. Please take it. Any of these could be a fun project. If you don't take it, it will go to WeirdStuff Warehouse where they'll do horrible things. I especially - KayPro 10. - Another MicroVAX 3800. The non-working version of the one above. - DEC Professional 350. Dead video. That's it. If you happen to come over and we're going through stuff and I find something else I should get rid of, you're welcome to it! -Seth
