Maybe a PET treasure
Posted: Thu Nov 17, 2011 9:31 pm
First, i am very new here.
My name is Marc and i started with the odd C64 in 1985.
I live in Dusseldorf,Germany.
I have to tell a short story.
A friend of mine is an architect. He bought four houses + ground here and develops a new project there.
Last week we went into the cellar of one of the houses and i found some computing stuff there. Old stuff!
Due to lack of time i only looked over for five minutes over the items and first wasnt very impressed.
I wrote down the numbers downside + googled a bit. These a rare things i know now.
I found:
C8032 - 32b with two extra switches
C2001 - 32nc with two extra switches
double floppy drive
cartoons with IEEE cables
handbooks
floppies
hard drives (originally packed) - for what computer ever
+ 2 Ataris
Tomorrow is the day. I will go there with a friend (a PET owner) and load it all into a car.
Then we will check out, if it all is working + whats really in there.
In fact, i will sell this on Ebay soon, because i dont want to spare this stuff for a longer time.
My target is to maybe buy a nice Zotac with the amount i do with the selling of these items.
So, if anyone is interested, send me a mail + i will send you the link of the auction on Ebay then.
Please understand i do it this way but i cannot store the things in my home, my wife would kill me !
