I remember that story. What an ordeal you went through. The upside is that someone else is going to get a really nice 128D because of your efforts. One question though: Is there something written in magic marker on the front of the unit?

I don't think (99.9% sure) we don't have any 128Ds in the TPUG locker. Have you checked with Joe Palumbo?

Gambit: How much do you want for it?

gklinger, What is the most i should pay for a complete commodore 64? That's up to you but here in Toronto you can get a 64, two 1541 drives a 1702 monitor all the cables and a joystick or two for around $50 (and yes, everything works.) Toronto is a bit of a hotbed of Commodore activity so it might ...

New Jersey, got it. I'll ask around and see what I can find. Give me a day or two.

I have a commodore C64 and i would like to know if i can connect it and access data (Internet) It requires a bit of effort and some additional hardware but it can be done. Is there a guide for connecting my commodore to the internet and if so what service would i need? There are two methods. One is...

Since shipping of such a system could be expensive, it would be useful if you could tell us where you're located ("Find me if you can!" isn't very helpful.) I would be glad to ship you whatever you need to wherever you are provided you pay for the shipping but honestly, you could probably ...

Through talking with Nick Smith by phone and e-mail, he's agreed to send me the last version of AA BBS that he wrote for both the 64 and the 128. Not only that, but just yesterday I got another e-mail from him, and he says he's going to also send me the SOURCE CODE for both versions, which he wants...

No worries. We're all sorted.

Uh... yeah... just read the second-to-last sentence in my original post.

Yeah, I got that. I wasn't sure if Gambit had. I gotta remember to use a in posts like that.

I'm pretty sure they make and sell 8" floppies too.

Where do you find all these NIB computers?

Couldn't you ask the seller to check the serial number(s) on the other boxes and find the one that matches your 128 and then send you that box in exchange for you sending the box you have back? Surely that would be cheaper and easier than buying and shipping another 128 or returning the one you've a...

Actually Gambit, Tequila's post is spam. What these parasites are doing these days is posting vague comments that sound like they could be on-topic so as to avoid being deleted by administrators. In point of fact, the post is meaningless and exists only so that people will click on the URL in their ...

Ouch. $250 is a lot of money if it isn't exactly what you wanted and you already paid $50 for shipping and you'll presumably be out another $50 to ship it back. Worse yet, that's only if the seller will take it back. I would say you would be better off trying to sell it to recoup your investment. If...
