sounds like my investment in Timex was ok after all, I purchased several of
them from K-mart at closeout a few years back. Cost then was $25 each and
they have never been out of the boxes.

I have a Texas Instruments T1-99/4A computer and
related books
for it and I
also have a Sinclair 1000 with related books. Can
you tell me
if they are of
value and/or use to anyone out there ?
Well, Value ? This is _very_ dependant on the condition and the
situation (and of course, as always, on the buyer 'need':).
A 99/4A can range from USD 2,- (just the unit in used condition)
up to USD 30-70 (New, unused, original packed, never opened with
no damages on the box). PS: The white units may score way higher
in Europe, since they never where sold in masses over here. PPS:
a Ti 99/4 (no A) will also range higher, especialy when in mint/
unused condition.
A Timex/Sinclair may earn you USD 2-5 (used, with PS) or score
a whooping USD 50,- as a new never opened box.
Well, it's up to you.
Any use for the old stuff ? Again personal choice - run the old
games etc ... or just collect them (belive me, there are some
realy wiered guys (and gals) out there :).
Gruss
H.
