Hello! Bill, Gregg Levine here, I am interested in this one: 9. IBM Graphics Development Toolkit “boxed book”. Three original 5.25 diskettes: VDI device drivers, Language Libraries, Supplemental Programs. What is the recommended method of collection? ----- Gregg C Levine gregg.drwho8@gmail.com "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again."

I'm not getting rid of my whole collection or anything, but things are getting a little tight in terms of physical space and I have stuff that simply doesn’t keep my interest. I’d rather not do ebay so I’ll offer them here first. I will put up pictures if there is interest. None of this is “barn stored”. It has all been in my temperature controlled house since last century.
1. HP series 100 (the 150 and 150 touchscreen II) documentation. This could be described as the “grey wall” for the HP 150. All the basic books plus Wordstar, Spellstar, Multiplan, etc.etc. At least 20 “boxed books”. Many (I think all but have not checked yet) have original diskettes. HP-150 with built in printer, floppy and hard disks to come when I get back to it. 2. IBM PC original “boxed book” “DOS” part number 6024001 on spine. I would call the condition excellent. Two original 5.25 diskettes: DIAGNOSTICS Version 1.02 6081552. DOS Version 1.00 6172212 (I’m tempted to keep this because of the CP/M –vs- DOS controversy) 3. IBM PC original “boxed book” “DOS” part number 6024001 on spine with round sticker “1.10 with Graphics”. I would call the condition very good. One original 5.25 diskette: DOS Version 1.10 1502330 4. IBM PC original “boxed books” "UCSD p-System": Beginner’s guide, Assembler reference, Internal Architecture Guide, User’s guide. The “User’s guide” box contains five original 5.25 diskettes: STARTUP, SYSTEM 2, SYSTEM 4, EXTRAS and UTILITIES. 5. IBM PC original “boxed book” IBM FORTRAN-77 Reference for the UCSD p-System. Contains one original 5.25 diskette: UCSD p-System FORTRAN Version IV.0 6936510 6. IBM PC original “boxed book” IBM COBOL Compiler by Microsoft. Contains two original 5.25 diskettes: LIBRARY 6936566, COBOL 6172250 7. Various other original IBM PC “boxed books”. Document Retrieval Assistant, 3101 Emulation, Dow Jones Reporter, SNA 3270, etc. etc. Maybe a dozen. 8. The box and binder for “Guide to operations, Personal Computer XT”. Unfortunately, it does not contain this. Instead it contains “The CP/M and IBM Public Domain Library” by Dynacomp. This all seems to be later CP/M, running on the IBM PC or Kaypro. Just documentation and listings, no media. 9. IBM Graphics Development Toolkit “boxed book”. Three original 5.25 diskettes: VDI device drivers, Language Libraries, Supplemental Programs. 10. BASIC – Personal Computer – PCjr “boxed book”. Contains original ROM Cartridge “Cartridge BASIC” 1302285. (Maybe this should go with the PCjr I will be offering when I dig it out) 11. ERGO MOBY BRICK 486DX-33 computer. Missing original power supply. I cobbled together a supply last century some time and it worked then. Has not been powered on in at least 25 years. 12. Osbone Executive. Limited Edition, personalized plaque to “ANNETTE KING”. It ran last century. Has not been powered on in at least 25 years.
More to come.
