Had to pass this on, hopefully someone will want to pick up some nice free stuff.

Albany Microcomputer Services which served the San Francisco Bay Area
in the 1990's is cleaning up.

Everything is FREE to a good home.

Location is Albany, California
Time is 1:00-3:00pm, Saturday May 7, 2011

1. Preview at 12:30pm, Saturday May 7, 2011
You can't take anything yet.
2. Everybody goes back outside at 1:00pm Saturday, May 7, 2011
3. By order of RSVP email datestamp, each person gets to pick one thing
4. Then you go to the back of the line to pick something else

Everything not picked up will be recycled.

You may only take computer hardware and software and computer related
materials. There are other things there that you may not take.

A computer system (computer, monitor, power supply) is one item if you can
carry it.

Anything you can carry is one item of software or manuals

This time it is mostly Commodore PETs and peripherals. There is very
little Apple and a few PC's

1 Apple IIgs
1 MSD Super Disk Drive
10 Commodore disk drives (4040, 8080, 2031)
10 Commodore printers
130 Commodore PET's (2001, 4016, 4032, 8032, big/little keyboard )
3 acoustic modems
20 Tymshare 100 terminals (suitcase sized remote access!)
10 Commodore cassette recorders
21 PS/2 model 30 PC's
5 PC AT's
10 Various printers
(some of the numbers above are approximations)

Tons of software for all of the above and more (Much of software is educational)
This is all different software from last time.
Some of the software is for Apple
Many books for the above

All computers are old. I am not sure if they work or are complete.
Some are over 30 years old.

No SuperPET's or educational C64's available.

It is all untested.
Parts may be missing.
Monitors and power supplies may be missing (making it impossible to test)

RSVP to [email protected] and I will send you the address.
Send the name of every person coming, so they can be added to the list.
Please tell me what you are interested in taking.
That way people below you can have a better idea if it is worth driving out.
 
Free isn't a deal? Commodores don't play games?

FREE Commodores is a great deal. If you want to pay something, think of time and driving to it as the investment or payment. It isn't a current-gen deal, it's a classic gaming deal.

There's a place elsewhere on the forum called "Contests & Free Stuff".

It's a very nice find, but this thread seems like it would make more sense if it lived there.

Welcome to the site. Have a look around sometime.
