following items, as a minimum:
     
                       Computer (not home-assembled, and
                                 capable of 80 character display)
                       RGB monitor with sound (preferably color)
                       printer capable of at least 80 character line
                       disk drive of some sort
                       operating system
     
                       Monitor and printer to be AT(/clone)-compatible
     
    I am not looking to spend more than $500 (max) for any used system,
unless it is truly outstanding (show me). I will pick up/pay shipping.
     
    I will want satisfaction that the system works via some sort of
verification demo, or if geography doesn't permit that, via a reasonable
owner warranty period, within which I may get a full refund.
     
    If some vendor or other company services/can service the system,
please give me their particulars, including prices.
     
    I am looking to buy a system, new (from a dealer) or used, *THIS WEEK*.
Replies A.S.A.P., please.
