Here is a nice complete B128 system. In addtion to everything else The book that comes with this is very useful and the software included shows that there is useful software and that the person actually used this computer. Also included is the best display for a B series system, better than the color monitors made by CBM for a monochrome monitor. The USI is the recommended display for B series computers and hard to find.
Wow, indeed, that is nice, and turnkey - ready to go. I used to drool looking at that ad in Compute's Gazette when Protecto started selling those for $795. I had dreams of getting one of those as an alternative of using a C128 to run my BBS. It's a shame those never caught on. I've never researched, but CBUG created some software for the B-series, I'd be interested to find if they ever developed BBS software for it. Justin
