  I want to sale my Unix workstation system for only $239!!!
  The maker of the system is Valid Systems(a California based hardware
  company). It was mad in 1984. The size is like a IBM-AT.
  Valid ScaldStation IV Unix Workstation (runs 4.2 BSD)
  68010, 20MB Hard disk(you can add another hard disk to it),
  720K Floppy(use same IBM low density 360KB floppy
  disk), 2 MB Memory (expands to 4)
  serial port, OMNInet port. complete with docs, C-compiler, vi, etc.
  monitor is BW(actually is green) with 640x480 resolution; about 14
  inches in diagonal. It can also
  display horizontal or vertical ways. mouse is optical type.
  I have no problem with both hardware and software, and it is in a very
  good condition. The reason I want to sell it is that my wife just got
  her job(Unix administration staff!!), and she has some SUNs to play now.
  This system is only very good for system programming, learning unix
  internals, hardware configuration, etc. Something you need a superuser
  passwd to do. If your interest is regular 'C' programming, then
  the IBM-PC is much better.
