The Stuff List

This is a list of the stuff that I have accumulated, and probably don't need any more. Sell it on e-bay? I suppose I could, but e-bay auctions only last a week or so. Most of this stuff is of such little interest to people that I doubt very much that it would be sold on such an on-line auction. Also, some of it would be quite expensive to ship anywhere. Craigslist? Same problem - advertisements there only last a week or so.

Thus, I am leaving here a list of the stuff that I would some day like to sell / give away / trade / whatever. Maybe someday someone who wants something will stumble across this page and make an offer I can't refuse.

If you want any of this stuff, please contact me at gl4317 @ yahoo . com Unfortunately I am not able to check the mail at this address very much, but I will eventually answer all mail sent there. OR, you can figure out from the URL of this web site what my real, regular e-mail address is.

Stuff I Have and Don't Need Anymore:

• Borland Turbo C++, Reference Library and Disks. Turbo C++, cira 1990. 5x 3.5" disks. 6 books, creating a stack about 9 inches tall.

• SimCity 2000 for the Macintosh. Includes box, manual, CD-ROM.

• Macintosh 6100 computer and Monitor and Keyboard. No ADB mouse. Not sure about condition as I have never used the thing. How did I wind up with this anyway? I use a perfectly functional PowerMac 7100 even today, so how did I wind up with a second ancient Macintosh beast?

• Apple IIe / Apple ][+ computers, and so on, etc.

• Okimate 20 color printer. Cira 1986 color printer. Was used with the Apple IIe / Apple ][+ computers. Appears to have a failed thermal system, but there are some nice parts that someone might use as part of an electronics project, including a working motor for the printer carriage assembly.

• Epson dot matrix printer cira 1992. Has several settings for print style, including script.

• Apple ][ software, including a box of games, and what is probably the oldest word processing program for a home computer anywhere: Word Handler, cira 1978. I'm not sure the disks are still readable, but the system still worked as of 1994. I also have a whole box of game software someone gave me, including such things as administrative programs for Dungeons & Dragons (this is not a game, but a program to help in the administration of an actual role playing game), and about 15 others. Again, I am not sure if the old disks can still be read, but I have kept them in a cool relatively dry climate to prevent as best as possible their decay.

Stuff I would Like to Have:

• Railroad memorabilia - tell me what you have. There is a group trying to get a railroad museum started in the Portland area, and any of a number of materials would be interesting to get.

• 100 megabyte ZIP disks in working order.

• Picture frames - looking for good condition, in the 20 inch by 30 inch or so size range. I want to get some of my old 35 mm slide materials on the walls, but frames for the stuff are expensive.

• An old cheap laptop of some sort. All it has to be capable of doing is operate on 120v power, edit a text file, and save stuff to a floppy disk.
