Hello.. I appologize for posting a sale on the CPM sig but I doubt many readers
here have all the time thats required to keep up on the forsale sigs..


Epson Qx-10 - CP/M Z80-based computer

This machine is in EXCELLENT condition in the original boxes with ALL the
manuals

Hardware includes:

- 14" Green monochrome monitor
- 2 360k floppies
- 1 serial, 1 parallel, light-pen port

TTX - Wide Carriage Full letter quality daisywheel printer with manuals,
cables, etc.

Software:
- Valdocs 1 and 3+ - excellent word processor with full documentation and
original diskettes ( valdocs 3+ can use a mouse! )

- Built-in on-line help, spell checker, thesaurus, scheduler, modem
software, drawing software, graphing software, and other built-in
features.

full documentation

This machine was truly a computer before its time. Valdocs is a WSYSWIG-type
word-processor that has italics, bold, underline, etc, on-line help, etc all
built-in. It had a built-in spell checker and was very easy to use. I
primarily used it for its word processing features and true ease-of-use. Its
truly a great computer back then and now and was always 100% reliable for me.

If your interested, please e-mail me at dra...@ecst.csuchico.edu with an offer
or any questions you may have. I guarantee this machine to fully work upon
shipment and I'll always help you with any problems you may have. This
computer would make a great Christmas present for the student, beginning
computer enthusiast, or hobbyist!


Ps. Don't even concider buying a Brother-type typewriter. This machine is
truely an excellent word processor and is a full computer to boot!

So what are you willing to PAY ME to take it? And it better be good,
I don't come cheap. ;-)

Seriously, I used to have to use one on a programming job I worked on.
It had been outfitted with a MS-DOS card, so I was using it as a PC
Compatible. I still shudder when I think about it.... Still, I might
be will to go as high as, say $20 if you pay the shipping.
