Subject: FREE ALTOS Z80: 208K RAM, 40MB HD, TAPE DRIVE, CRT, ETC.

I own a hardworking Altos ACS8000 MP/M (multiuser) machine, which my wife
wants me to dump because it's taking up too much (guest) room.  I want to find
a good home for it with a fellow CP/M buff -- if they'll come to Santa
Barbara, California, and haul it away.

Here are the specs:

It's an Altos ACS8000 with Zilog Z80 microprocessor running MP/M II (V2.1).
It has an ACS 8200 Circuit Board supporting up to 4 concurrent users, with
208K of random access memory: 16K system memory, and 4 banks of 48K user
memory.  It has one (1) Single/Double density 8" floppy drive and a 14"
Winchester 40MB Hard Drive.

Also part of the free package is an Altos Magnetic Tape Unit (MTU-2, CMTD-
3400S2) to backup the hard disk onto 13.4 MB, 1/4", 450-foot, 4 track, high
density magnetic tape cartridges.  The MTU records data at 6400 BPI in serial
recording, Modified Frequency Modulation format, at 192 Kbits/second.

PLUS, a Televideo 925 monitor and TONS of:  manuals, 8" floppies, tape
cartridges, software on and off the hard disk --  a text editor, spell
checker, mail merger, accounting system, ADVENTURE, etc.

All for the low, low price of $0.  Just pick it up in Santa Barbara,
California, promise to love it forever, and haul it home.     -Craig Spirka
