It's in good physical and optical condition, very little signs of use. With the machine came 2 tape carts, one 16k mem-board, a spare roll of thermal paper, the user manual and a BIG carrying-case for the machine and the parts. After a quick check (psu) I turned the whole thing on and - whoopee, it's behaving like as it was new :D Sorry for the spam, but I wanted to share my happyness.
