Selling various computers - Mac/PC/Sun/Osborne

Make a reasonable offer on anything, feel free to test things as well. I’m generally open to splitting things for a good price. Available Friday to early Sunday morning.

Items:
Quadra 700 - booted years ago, no HDD. I have 2 Mac floppy drives, take one or both with this.

Beige G3 Desktop unit - no expansion cards, no HDD. Booted fine last tested.

IBM PCjr with keyboard, joystick, PSU, and jrIDE and CF card. The connector on the jrIDE may be a bit finicky.

BBC Micro Model B, I believe? With user port storage device. Boots to blank screen, power supply has been swapped to 110V. (simple jumper swap)

IBM PS/2 Model 25 286 - has a Sound Blaster something and may have a 386/486 upgrade? It’s almost like a worse EduQuest machine!

Osborne Executive - booted to insert disk screen fine, floppy drives don’t appear to work, includes boot disks (made by a friendly fellow last year at VCFMW).

Sun Ultra 10 - this definitely needs an NVRAM replacement, includes wireless card and modern-ish looking SCSI card. 2 keyboards (one missing some keycaps) and mouse also included. Last test got it into the BIOS.

3 NuBus video cards, 2 Pivot cards and one Spectrum/8, I believe?

Compaq Portable III - one damaged key cap, can’t confirm floppy drives status, turns on fine last checked.

IBM ThinkPad 380ED - includes power supply. Screen starts off bright white, comes in normally after a few seconds. Backlight bleed, some minor screen damage. 32mb RAM, CD-ROM drive, Pentium MMX.

Atari ST monochrome monitor. Don’t have an ST with me to test, but obviously fine with testing.
Text Nik at 262-353-1313, I can do cash/PayPal/Venmo. May consider some trades, particularly interested in a 386 (not 386sx) PS/2 MCA computer - think Model 70.
