Geez! Trade em some more modern hardware for what you
want/need. I've
been giving away lots of Mac IICi's for the last 2 years now, since
the university here keeps throwing em away. Another department here
has been trying to sell mac IICi's for $15 each, and it doesnt look like
they are selling em at that price.
Where are you located? I wouldn't mind getting one of those Macs. My
church has also been looking for a couple old Macs for their education
center, since there's a Mac guru that goes to my church (anyone need System
7.5 or System 7.5.x updates??)
I dont have any TRS-80's in my collection (except
one mutant model 4),
and if they have any REAL apple II's (ie, not a plus model, the real
integer basic II's), it would seem to be a nice trade.. I imagine
they would love a 486 system, or even a good 386, if all they have
are TRS-80's and Apple II series computers.
I think They have a couple that they use (at least they did when I went
there) for their card scanner (for bubble-sheet tests). The only TRS-80
that I have is a fried Model III that I've gutted and am trying to convert
it using some old Tandy 1000 parts (anyone know how to connect a TRS-80
monitor to a CGA or composite output?)

Thanks but I already shop at the U of MN and most of the really neat old
stuff is gone, trashed. For awhile you could get some really old
collectable items from there it's just tons of Mac SE's, ci's, II's and
the
like and already have my fill of those. On my next visit I will be of the
look out for you there. John

Actually, here is a URL for the campus computer repair services. They've
started a program where they will come pickup junk computer hardware on
campus for free, which they then turn around and attempt to sell. You
can see some of whats available on the web:
http://www.umn.edu/crs
Of course, i'm sure they dont ship items, but if you're in the minneapolis
area, or know someone here and are desperate for something, then
something might be arranged. of course, John Keys might be making a
beeline to buy all this stuff up already ;)

John,
Do they have any Mac accessories there? Specifically, I'm trying to find
a Kinetics EtherSC SCSI Ethernet adapter.
Could you keep you eyes open for one?
Thanks...
