Great fun. Lotsa driving. Lotsa great people, Lotsa classic computer stuff! First, I knew that Joe's CC reentry was being fueled by a *few* cool Intel MDS-800 systems so I brought down an Intel MDS 235 for him (that was originally his to begin with) to add to his growing 'Intel Gravatational Field' Joe and I started early Friday and Saturday and I scored all this real cheap: Technical Careers Instutute, Electrical Department's, X-80 (z-80 sbc) SUN SparcStations 1, 2, 5, 20 (all stripped except the 2,) and 2 keyboards TI-2500 Datamath LED calculator DEC puck mouse, LED Test Light Panel GenRad's/DEC M7516, M3107, M7546, M7608, M7609, ClearPoint, WQESD/04 Commodore VIC-20 ML and Monitor Cart and 3 Slot Expanders Commodore 1571 and 1541, Simon Basic Cart, Infocom's HGTTG (my perile sensitive (driving) sunglasses are wearing out) COCO Basic09, OS9, OS9L2, and Pascal docs (some lamer ebayer borrowed and kept mine) DANA Counter (for the 8 NIXIES) X-10 Telephone remote controller and a few split wall recepts.

When I returned, Joe had found *my* RCA VIP. I felt several blood vessels then pop behind my forehead... ;) There were also several classiccmps not picked up because of high prices like: Several TRS-80 100 portables and one with the portable floppy and a Model 4 SGI Indy Timex ZX81 There was also a cool computer (not purchased) from Chrystler that was a old 8080 (embedded maybe) multiboard system in a cardcage. It's 8080 chip was There was even one 'Vintage Computer' table. This guy had CoCo stuff galore. He said that I was his only customer the first day. So I made some ancillary purchases from him for the coco and commie stuff mentioned above. Oh yeah.
