Apple II compatible BASIS 108: for sale cheap!



Has anyone ever heard of a BASIS 108 computer?  I have one I need to
get rid of.   It's an Apple II compatible, with a 6502 cpu _AND_
also a Z80 CPU  (well, it was popular at the time!).  Runs both
DOS 3.3 and  CPM.  Requires a peek/poke change to ProDos to get
that to load, I'm told, since the CPU doesn't identify itself as
a IIe.
  Software includes CPM, Perfect Writer, Perfect Calc, Perfect Filer,
and Perfect Speller (for the Z80 side).  Detached keyboard with
numeric keypad and 15 function keys.  Serial & parallel ports
built into it.  128K  RAM  (probably not Apple standard, but
I've no idea).  Heavy aluminum case (well shielded!) about
20"x20"x6" (from memory), so shipping of whole unit could run
$40-50.  Unit is currently in Knoxville, TN at my brother's.
  If anybody needs a basic Apple II to run some equipment or
machinery, this might do the trick.
  At the very least it could be useful for parts:  has two SS 5.25"
floppy drives and a 12" amber screen monitor.   Power supply might
be useful, though it's probably not Apple standard.

  If anybody is interested, email me an offer at
BADDORF@WARNER.FNAL.GOV.   I'll listen to any offer!
