FS: Panasonic Business Partner XT Clone
All, I've got a Panasonic Business Partner I'd like to...part with :) Seems to work, I haven't played with it much. Comes with the correct keyboard, which is actually very nice to type on. It reminds me of my Leading Edge Model D keyboard. The machine appears to be mostly just an XT clone, it has ISA slots and whatnot. Dual 5.25" double density floppies. The video card is CGA/MDA switchable, I've tested it with a MDA monitor. I haven't been able to find much documentation on it, just mentions in magazines of the era, but I also haven't looked too hard. Asking $75 or best offer. Thanks, Jonathan
I think they're nice machines. You might get more than $75. On Thu, Nov 16, 2017 at 1:47 PM, systems_glitch via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vintagecomputerfederation.org> wrote:

Yeah, they seem like really well built machines -- but, I paid $75 for it, and if I'm letting it go to someone else in the club, $75 is fine! Thanks, Jonathan On Thu, Nov 16, 2017 at 3:35 PM, william degnan via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vintagecomputerfederation.org> wrote:
