Subject: S-100 boards and other stuff

While doing some cleaning, I found several S-100 (and other) boards
and other stuff I've accumulated over many years.  Is there ANY market
for such things now, or should I just trash them?  I have:
*  3 Solid State Music S-100 music-maker boards (NOT RAM!),
*  1 Computalker S-100 board,
*  1 Cromemco S-100 DAZZLER board,
*  1 MPA S-100 board (adapts a 6502 chip to run on an S-100 bus),
*  1 whole VECTOR 4 computer with a 10 MByte hard disk, a 600Kbyte
     hard-sectored floppy drive, 128Kbyte RAM, a "modified" (i.e., no
     on-card voltage regulators) S-100 bus, and over 100 diskettes of
     stuff including dBase II, BCSD (?) C, assembler, a spreadsheet, a
     word processor, CP/M (8-bit CPU) AND CP/M-86 (16-bit CPU) (and
     I've been offered a Vector version of MS-DOS for only $80!)
*  1 Northstar S-100 Micro Disk controller board,
*  4 Northstar 16Kbyte S-100 dynamic RAM boards (fully populated),
*  4 Northstar 16Kbyte S-100 dynamic RAM boards (UNpopulated), and
*  2 Digital Group 16Kbyte static RAM boards.

I'd like to SELL everything, but whatever I do, I've got to make more
room in my computer "shack" for incoming stuff!  I've been offered a
mere pittance for four of the above boards; should I take it and run?

Does anyone know where I might find a KONAN DGC-100 hard-disk controller
board (and maybe a hard disk to go along with it)?  I'd like to add it
to my Z-100 using a device driver described in an article I clipped from
a mazagine several years ago.
