I may not have been clear....the Clairemont class that wants the
computers will pay shipping.  4th class shipping between Canada and
the USA is not much.  Email Louis and let him decide.

If you have them, you should contact joko@crl.com to unload them.
Just because some rehab center discarded these does not mean they
are not being used.  There is more software written for the GS and IIe
for people with disabilities than any other computer and the ADC is

hardware and software.
