Old Computers or Spare Parts

by Vance Jochim - January 23, 2002 at 20:39:54:


As a collector of some old PC's, including Altair, Imsai, etc. I thought I would share some information related to finding more information:

Aftermath Technologies is a non-profit warehouse in Altadena, CA (near Silicon Valley) that is given obsolete and old computers and software by local businesses. Their website has a large number of pictures so you can see what they have, but apparently pictures are all they have, and no master inventory list because the volunteer workers there don't know computers. So, if you go to the "dig" link (not a very good website) you can see all the pictures, and can get large versions of the thumbnails you want to view. You will find Radio Shack TRS 80's, Macs, older laptops, older big iron, including old Honeywell terminals, Cisco equipment, Silicon Graphics workstations, a Zenith dual floppy (5.25") PC, an Altos, etc. They also have some software. Go there, find something, call and make an offer!

A new newsletter has been created about collectible computers - it is at:

Maybe now I can find a buyer for all those cute Sinclair's I have.
