this was posted on comp.sys.zenith.z100. $100 seems high to me given the
condition of this machines and the fact that it's a bare bones
configuration - i recently got one of these plus tons of software for free.
these puppies are heavy too so watch the shipping costs.
on the plus side: this is a very nice CP/M machine. S-100 bus; dual CPUs
(8085 and 8088) and much of the CP/M BIOS actually executes on the 8088
CPU! please reply to the original poster (not me). tx.

Subject: z-100 for sale (circa 1984)... cheap?
I'm offering the following dinosaur for sale:
Zenith Z-100 computer (bought as a student at Clarkson College in 1984):
256K RAM (I will also throw in the original 192K chips) Monochrome display
2 5-1/4" "Half-height" Floppy Drives Video memory for shades of grey *NO*
hard drive!
Software for above: DOS, Z-BASIC, Multiplan, Pascal/Fortran Compilers,
Turbo Pascal A few other disks with games and utilities.
Condition: good, a couple of keys don't work too well. Computer has not
been used in the past 6 years.
Price: I'm looking for $100 *plus* shipping but will consider any offer. I
want to get rid of it by December or else it will probably end up in the
computer graveyard.
