my finds from friday:


I've been wanting a small TV for the garage to watch, and test systems, it's got a great picture. The CDI joystick was .99, the guy was just thrilled to finally get rid of it (bought it at an electronics store). I thought the SEGA cart was one of the writeable ones from blockbuster or something, but I couldn't find anything when I did a quick search. I always pick up the HP calcs when I find them for a buck or two.

later,

I wonder what that Genesis cart is. Does it do anything when you put it in a genesis?

my finds from friday:

Awesome HP 12C (am I right about that model number or is it 11C?) financial calculator. Depending on it's condition I'd say it's worth at least $30.

Good eye, but it's actually your second guess: 11C

I don't know if you know what I'm talking about but a 12C looks exactly like that except it's gold instead of silver :P. I know that pictures sometimes just don't get the colors right.

I really shouldn't be spending money right now but it never hurts to browse craigslist, don't want to miss a big deal. Anyway, there was an Apple IIGS lot that I believe was originally posted at $100.00 and then $50.00. Eventually it was dropped down to $25.00 and sat for awhile. It was somewhat close to me so I figured I'd send an e-mail saying that I'd be interested in picking it up for $25.00. I didn't think I would get a reply but sure enough a few minutes later I got a response saying that it was mine and to set up a meeting place for the next day. Turns out the gentleman selling it wanted to meet up like ten minutes away. Really nice guy and a really great Apple IIGS lot containing the following...

Apple IIGS Woz Edition (ROM Version 01, maxed out RAM card, looks like it has a SuperDrive controller card in there too)
AppleColor RGB Monitor
ADB Keyboard and Mouse
AppleDisk 3.5" drive
UniDisk 3.5" drive (needs work, disks don't eject)

With the exception of the UniDisk drive, it all works great.



(pictured with one of my 5.25" UniDisk drives, running my favorite Apple II game, Tass Times in Tonetown - I know, time to play the IIGS version now)

No IIGS software other than Basic on a couple disks but that can be remedied with ADTPro. This one will be going into storage at my parents place until I have space to have it properly set up.
