I suspect I will be taking a very nice, tested, working... and
WARRANTED
2108B (21MX - M series) to ebay shortly. I need the cash particularly badly
at the moment for other acquisitions :)
The M series is not common really, if Ebay is any indicator - more rare than
the 2100A or S. I have a few M series I'm keeping, but this one is excess.
If I do put it on ebay I'll email to the list.

Yes it can!
They are quite common, and very affordable. You can be up and running an HP
mini with far less cost and trouble than a 'more desirable' PDP-8 or PDP-11.

Depends on what your definition is of affordable!! A 21MX E is cheap &
common, I'd say they can easily be found sub $100. F's slightly less so,
more like $150. M's are almost never found anymore, no telling what one
would go for (but I'm about ready to find out). And have you seen what 2100A
or S machines go for? I've seen anywhere from $750 to $1500. 2116's seem to
go around $650 too.

Well I have not seen any computers go for a song, since about 1982.
$300 seems like a fair price, with $300 for shipping for a basic less
popular vintage computer then. I have the money ... Now who has the puter?

PS. For any deals in the UK, just think
'pound sign' instead of '$'.
From here all shipping costs are about the same, other than Antarctica.
