There are a few titles there that are not on my archive on iblblio/sunsite. Did anyone get a copy to any of the mirrors?

Any idea what a system is worth these days?
I have a working system with all the software, including CP/M board and software and Tower Case.

As these systems are uncommon today I doubt you'll find any reasonable
way of setting a value on it. It will totally depend on the seller and
buyer.

For some, it would be considered scrap, while some others might be
willing to pay a lot. Don't ask me how to find the latter...
