I've got the following system for sale due to the fact that I need money
for school. I would like to sell the system as a whole, as it might take
me a while to sell the entire system as individual pieces. Anyway,
everything works really well together! Here's the system:

Items
==============================================
Atari 130XE Computer, 128K RAM & Rev. C BASIC built in
ICD Multi Input/Output board
- RS232 (modem) port
- Centronics (printer) port
- SCSI/SASI (hard drive) port
- Firmware, and Printer Spooler
- 1 MEG RAM (fantastic Ramdisk!!!)
XE Adaptor for MIO (necessary to use MIO with XE)
Adaptec 4000A Hard Drive Controller Card
Seagate ST225 20 Meg hard drive
Microscience 20 Meg hard drive
Indus GT Double Density disk drive
Atari 1050 w/US Doubler (Double Density)
XEP80 80 column board (also has printer port)
R-Time 8 battery clock cartridge
SpartaDOS X Cartridge
Assembler Editor Cart
PC Power supply (150 watts) for the 2 hard drives & Adaptec
XT Case (two hard drives, Adaptec, MIO, & Power supply all fit here!)
Magnavox 80 column Monochrome Monitor (works great with XEP80)
100 Disks in 3 Alsop disk cases (including)
Hacker
Archon II: Adept
Omnitrend's Universe
Alternate Reality: The Dungeon
Spy Vs. Spy
Carina II BBS Software
20 Original Antic disks, in 2 plastic disk cases
Cables (HD cables, RS232 [modem] cable, etc.)
Power Strip
==================================================

I am willing to part with this system for a mere $1500. A lot of my time
and money (well over $2000) went into putting this system together.
The hard drives and the 1 MEG MIO board alone would cost nearly $1000 today
new! (each drive is roughly $200, and ICD sells the MIO for $450)

I've got all the cables and power supplies needed to hook everything
together. The two hard drives have a TON of PD software on them, as I
used to run a Bulletin Board System. I also have a lot of original
software on the 100 or so disks mentioned above.

If you are looking to run a BBS, this is a great way to start.
I ran Carina II and in my opinion it is better than any ST BBS
software that has come out yet (including FoReM).

With a second monitor (or b/w TV) you can generate two entirely different
displays by using the XEP80 and SpartaDOS X. I'll be glad to assist
the person who purchases the system in setting it up, and if he/she is
local, can do so in person. If you're not local to me, I'm going to have
fun mailing all this!!

Please contact me at 716-475-4088 weeknights or weekends if you are
interested in purchasing this system. Or, you can reach me at:

ajy...@ultb.rit.edu - Usenet
