No documentation. No diskettes. Includes 3 power cords. In working order (except do not know how to test printer which seems to POST OK). CPU will boot from hard drive into CP/M but not DOS. Plastic cases are quite suntanned (i.e. yellowed) except printer. Pictures of the machine may be viewed at http://members.shaw.ca/ajwotherspoon/rainbow/. Located in Victoria, BC, Canada. Shipping (including cartons), insurance and customs broker (if required) are your choice and cost. Using a bathroom scale the approximate weights are: CPU - 32 lbs. Monitor - 36 lbs. Keyboard - 4 lbs. Printer - 20 lbs. Cables - 4 lbs. Total - 96 lbs. (plus shipping cartons) I have a box that could be used for the printer if packed in Styrofoam peanuts. The hard drive should probably have its heads parked before shipping but I will need instructions/software. This is a collector's item, I am sure, but I have no idea as to its value and I am not a collector. It was purchased new here in Victoria from Computerland about 1983. I found it at a garage sale a few weeks ago. I would hate to see it scrapped but I can't store it much longer! I will not separate any components - it's all or nothing! For my efforts I would like a few dollars in addition to the shipping/insurance but not an outrageous sum. At www.omnicorp.net/dec.htm (in New Jersey) I see the CPU is listed at US$85, the monitor at US$95, the keyboard at US$50 and the printer at US$75 (all tested and guaranteed). I am not looking at anywhere near these prices. For further information or to make an offer please send email. This machine was posted on December 19, 2001 in the comp.sys.dec.micro Newsgroup and I have had one expression of interest so far. Alex
