A California Craigs List ad earlier this week caught my eye a couple
days ago and some emailing with the seller resulted in the following:
**************************************
Bear in mind that Gary was describing things and sometimes I don't get
the jargo quite right.
OK I have the info that you might like.
We have a bunch of Kaypros as mentioned and they are all the same $60
except the 16 which is $125
Kaypro- 2
Kaypro2 - 6
Kaypro4 5
Kaypro10 1
Kaypro 16- in original box with everything
Kaypro daisy wheel printer
Kaypro pc
Heathkit 89 A 2-
one with dual floppy , Heath buss, Serial IO card, fan
One with single floppy, and a CPU and memory main.
We also have one H8 some missing memory chips and much documentation.
We are asking $250 for H8 We have a printer buffer as well for that with
the manuals, cords etc. Happy to include with it.
I took some photos of the bunch of computers in the storage and will
send some to you if you wish. However, I have a crummy photo editor
and it requires a different email for each photo if I want to send them
in a small size.
Now, I am planning on listing the H8 in the next couple of weeks on
ebay unless someone is serious enough to come up and buy it. We are
closing our storage space in the next month or two and really want to
see the big computers etc translated into money..
