  I have one DEC GIGI (VK100) for sale.  If you want them, I believe
(but can't promise) that I still have the GIGI Basic, Technical Reference
and Owner's manuals.  I'll be happy to include them if I do.  You'll
need to supply your own monitor.

  I'd be happy to get $50 for it, OBO.  Buyer pays shipping, or you
can pick it up in the Palo Alto CA area.

  For those who haven't seen one, a VK100 is a graphics terminal that
DEC made back in the 80's.  It is a little larger than a VT100 keyboard,
and includes an 8085 processor with Microsoft Basic.  It can be used
as a simple computer stand alone, or as a graphics terminal for a
host mainframe.  It can emulate a VT100 and has the same keyboard as
a VT100, but it is _not_ a VT100.
