I finally decided to turn on the ISP’s spam filter on my email account. Between 8/4 and 8/26 it has snagged 2,682 emails. I am astounded.

August 25, 2008 – Two Model I’s to Sell for Local NJ Pickup Only

by @ 9:25 pm. Filed under For Sale or Trade
Two working Model I’s (or so I am told) for sale for local pickup, one manufactured in 1978, the other in 1980. I believe each has its own expansion interface.
The seller has a lot of stuff, including a service manual for the Model 1, game tapes [if she can find them] & other manuals. She has 5 disk drives total.
She does not want to ship them. Contact me, and I will forward the offers on. Pickup is in Bergen County NJ.

August 13, 2008 – Anyone have a spare Model I?

by @ 9:24 pm. Filed under For Sale or Trade
Do you have a Model I that you would like to see go to a really important good home?
The American Museum of Natural History in New York City is looking for a Model I in good physical shape to tour with an upcoming traveling exhibition. The tour would last 10 years which is why they are interested in acquiring the Model I instead of borrowing it. At the end of the tour they will be donating it to another non-profit exhibition.
Similar to the old Billy Crystal Saturday Night Live skit, it is much better for the Model I to look good than to feel good. While it would be nice if it worked, they are more interested in a Model I which is physically good looking, as it will be on display. A non-working Model I is fine by them.
The Model I does not need to have, but can have, an expansion interface and floppy disks. That would augment the exhibition, but they are really after the Monitor / Keyboard.
If you can donate your Model I, please let me know and I will put you in direct contact with them. They can, and will, provide a letter of donation for the IRS (although the donor would have to provide the value).
