I have what was once(!) a supercharged computer. It is an 8088 with 1024k of memory, a colour VGA monitor (maybe SVGA if you have such a card, I'm not sure...) a 35MB HD, 2 floppy disk drives (360, and 720K) a keyboard, a 2400 modem and a 9 pin Dot matrix printer- the Raven PR-9101. There are various useful programs on the computer such as procomm plus for dialing up the library's catalog or other BBS's, Norton Commander/PC tools for disk maintenance/ Word Perfect 5.1 for word processing... I am selling everything for $200 (canadian) or $160 (US) + shipping. I have been offered $100 (canadian) for the monitor only but I want to sell all of the system together. I know that this type of computer is completely outdated but, judging from past replies to various post I placed regarding the value of such a system, I think that it could still be useful to someone looking for a basic system for word processing, databases, record keeping etc or just as a hobby machine. I would prefer to sell to someone in CANADA. However, I will honor the highest offer outside of Canada if you are willing to pay shipping and if I receive the money/check before sending the system. I will, of course, leave you my address and home phone number so that we can get in touch beforehand. e-mail me if interested, Fabrice Grover (KARATE@DIRECT.CA)
