Dee thats exactly what I want to avoid. I haven't been able to find anything about the Z-nix turbo. I assume it was one of IBM clones that didn't survive the shake out. I'm hopeful we can all learn how to get the most out of our finds. Mike.

I sold both of those computers on http://www.vintage-computers.com I'm sure I could of got a little more cash on eBay but I have not taken the time yet to learn the ropes on eBay (yes I know it's easy). That being said I fix up and sell on my local classifieds about a third of the computers I get. covers my cost plus some to aquire more. As many of you are discovering with escrap is there is money to be made with re-sale of parts and collectable computers.

What those nasty old things? I had 3 of them I found about 6 months ago that I stripped so I could sell the metal cases. They looked a mess anyway - some bloke called Ted Roberts had scrawled his name on the inside of the case along with some quote or other about giants taking steps for mankind. Some rubbish or other.Originally Posted by bcoop
So in both cases they were sold as is. As in most cases if they work or you have all the parts you can expect more $$. That being said unless you have an one of these http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altair_8800 don't plan on getting rich

I know lying is wrong, but if the elephant man came in now in a blouse with some make up on, and said, "How do I look?" Would you say, bearing in mind he's depressed and has respiratory problems, would you say, "Go and take that blusher off you mis-shapened elephant tranny?" No. You'd say, "You look nice... John""
