Well, I guess it's time to jump on the "I'm selling my computer" bandwagon. Besides, it's been a long time since I sold a system. So... For Sale to highest bidder: Apple Lisa 5/20 [That's right, a Lisa!] o Hardware: - 1 megabyte of RAM - 5 megabyte ProFile external Hard Drive - Apple Parallel interface card. - 400k 3.5" floppy drive o Software: - Lisa Office System 3.1 - includes: Most recent (last) revision of Lisa Operating System, LisaDraw, LisaCalc, LisaGraph, LisaList, LisaWrite, LisaTerm, and LisaGuide. - Lisa/Mac XL Migration Kit: for translating to Macintosh. o Printer: - Apple Dot Matrix Printer (not an ImageWriter - this sucker's got a -parallel- interface). o Output: - 2 serial ports - 1 parallel port (needed for ProFile). - 1 parallel port (Apple card used for printer). - 12" monochrome screen built-in. (???x???) o Documentation: - Full documentation is included for all hardware and software. o Errata: - Still supported/repaired by Sun Remarketing. Sun offers a number of hardware and software upgrades. (Hard drives, accelerators, memory, epansion cards, etc.) - Solid construction. More modular and easier to take apart than any current Mac. In all honesty, the Lisa was a -very- well designed machine. - Plenty of internal expansion room. Room for 2 more expansion cards and an internal hard drive. - Can be made functionally identical to a Mac Plus with MacWorks Plus software from Sun. (not included). - Hell of a collector's item/computing antique! <grin> o Price: - Well, let's see here. You figure a Plus is selling for $699 new these days. So... <mumblemumble figger think>... - $300 or best offer. We'll haggle over the shipping. That includes the computer, printer, hard drive, cables, and everything else you need to get rolling. o Who: - Contact Jim Gaynor (me) at one of the following... - gaynor@magnus.ircc.ohio-state.edu (this account) - gaynor@agvax2.ag.ohio-state.edu (only if 1st doesn't work) - (614) 292-4338 (work voice) 9am - 5pm EST - (614) 899-6524 (home voice) 6pm - 11pm EST -- +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Jim Gaynor - The Ohio State Univ. - IRCC - Facilities Mgmt. - OCES <whew!> | | Email [gaynor@magnus.ircc.ohio-state.edu],[gaynor@agvax2.ag.ohio-state.edu] | |_ "Don't tell me truth hurts, little girl; because it hurts like hell..." _|
