I collect small home computers up to 1985, the smaller the better! I like to
include disk systems and all accessories except printers (but even those
when brand and style match the computer) especially for the under-powered
home machines. Software and hardware that attempted to make such systems
useable in business and other serious applications, including scientific
applications, is especially fascinating. Over 80 items in the collection so
far, which means that space is limited and much common stuff is accounted
for. But I am particularly after early single board computer systems (those
with just a keypad, like the KIM-1) and the Exidy Sorcerer. If you want your
system to go to a good home, to be restored and kept well for the future,
contact me.

I have recently left the corporate world to explore a career change in
teaching in New South Wales. At great expense I have amassed a good
collection of s100 and z80 era machines for students to study and desire to
add to the collection. I am happy to pick up machines from just about
anywhere in NSW and am not particular whether they run or not as getting
them running again is part of the challenge. I only ask that they be from
the 70s 80s era.

The first machine I grew to know inside-out, both in terms of hardware and
software, was a DEC PDP-8/e. That was 30 years ago. I'd dearly love to own
one of these now. I lost an auction on one a few years back at 700 UKP
(about a $1000 or so I guess) and dearly regret it.
I've got a few bits and pieces, but nothing too exciting at the moment.
I've had interesting machines in the past, like a 7-bit Univac machine I
bought from British Airways (or BOAC as they were). My parents made me
throw it out in the end though, the criminals! My children (4 of them)
have slowly started leaving the nest, so I find myself with some excess
space, so my intention now is to concentrate on old machines, with the
emphasis on DEC machines. That's probably going to be mainly PDP-11's and
MicroVaxen and the like, but I'm always on the look-out for a PDP-8 of
any variety, but ideally a PDP-8/e, which I still hold as legendary in
my mind.
I don't have transport suitable for sizeable bits of kit at the moment,
and would currently have to rely on rented/borrowed vans, but I do plan
to pick up an old white transit van as a secondary vehicle.

Computers of Interest : Pretty much anything. I have been collecting for 2
years now, and I am particularly interested in more unusual computers,
consoles and accessories.
Are covered : 150 mile radius of London, although I will travel further for
really unusual items. I will also pay postage for any items.
Transport & storage : I have a large amount of storage space so I can take
practically anything, as for transport I have my girlfriend's HUGE Volvo.

Computers of interest: All micro computers, particularly from the 1980's. I
started on Sinclair equipment because I learned most of my programming on a
Sinclair ZX-Spectrum but I've diversified to collecting any machines since
they're all getting lost one way and another.
Geographical area covered: The SE of England to collect depending on the
machine but I'll normally pay shipping.
Transport and storage capabilities: Transport is my wife's car :-) As for
storage, all over my house for now. I intend to open a small display venue
in the long term.

I am a computer colector with a medium sized colection that are used
often to write shareware software
for older microcomputers. I am hoping to increse my colection to start
a proper software company. I am
mostly instrested in the Commodore PET microcomputers anthing to do with
them: the microcomputers
(broken ones aswell), books, software, magazines, any upgrades or
hardware. Also I am instested in the
BBC microcomputers or anything to do with them, if you have any surplus
micro computer equipment mentiond on the list (or anything else of
intrest) you would like to go to a project that would find it usefull.
I would love to hear your offer. I am situated in england and would
consider anything in the UK at a reasonable price.

Main interests DEC systems and Unix workstations but anything will be

yet.
I am also willing to take away PCs and networks which are being disposed of,
any which are surplus to my requirements will be donated to local charities
and similar organisations along with technical support.

I teach "computational social science" which includes a bit of the history
and philosophy of computation. I learned on an IBM 1620, thought the
closest thing I would come to owning a computer was a pneumatic player
piano I bought in the 1970s, and ended up bypassing the MITS Altair and
Imsai 8080, looking at an IBM 5100 and buying a Tektronix 4051. Since then
I've been rescuing similar machines and now have two Thinking Machines
Connection Machines (CM2s). I'm also interested in microcontrollers and
single-board "prototyping" computers. I'm particularly interested in the
cryptographic origins of computers and collect in that field too, as well
as mechanical and analog devices. I would like to see a pneumatic computer
(I do have logic gates), but I wonder how we will collect DNA
computers? The basement and garages are nearly full but there's "always
room for one more."

Computers of interest: I am a collector/restorer of vintage microcomputer
hardware, software and media and am interested in providing a good home for
older systems and related items including old manuals, magazines,
advertisements and newsletters. By "old", I typically mean systems built
before 1984 and often much earlier than that. I am particularly interested
in S-100 bus and CP/M based systems. I am looking to breathe new life into
systems that are otherwise collecting dust and rust in attics, garages and
storage spaces. I'm willing to pick up or pay to ship most items and, for
some, I will pay more.
Geographical area covered: All of Northern California. I'll travel up to
200 miles from SF to pick up stuff and will pay to ship most items as well.
Transport and storage capabilities: A nice sized SUV for transport and a
bedroom plus half of a 2 car garage dedicated to storage, restoration and
playing.

Interests: 8088 XT computers and beyond. I did not get started into
computers until later in life, so I'm way behind everyone else. Am
mostly a tinkerer with computers and assembly language programming.
What I am mostly interested in is device drivers, technical data (in
.TXT or .PDF format), etc., for ANY old PC related peripheral.
Have already started a good sized collection at The DriverZone.

I will give your old computer equipment a good home! I am looking for
hardware and software for Atari, Commodore, Texas Instruments and Timex
Sinclair home computers from the late 1970s through the late 1980s. If
you are within an hour drive from Nashville I will come pick it up.
Thanks!!!
