Cords and leads all dry rotted.Β  Common terminal plastic damaged.Β  Batteries were left inside and one was leaking.Β  See photos.Β  Appears to be complete.Β  I suspect this could be brought back to life with a little work or would make a good parts unit.

I bought this a couple years ago intending to get it working, but it has sat around since then.Β  I am liquidating most of my old Ham gear due to my interests changing.Β  I will be listing some other items as time allows.

This unit is obviously not working right now and I am selling it as-s with no returns.

osi-600My first computer, you programmed it in basic and then you could record the program on a cassette tape via a connection to the microphone. I even had fun listening to the tape (sounded like a modem). I copied an entire Star Trek text-based game into the thing. That was about all I did.

“Ohio Scientific has made a major breakthrough in small computer technology which dramatically reduces the cost of personal computers. By the use of custom LSI micro circuits, we have managed to put a complete ultra-high performance computer and all necessary interfaces, including the keyboard and power supply, on a single printed circuit board.

mostly sunnySunny and hot today, as usual.

Some kids in school but our schools in the north are waiting til next week.

A wee bit hectic @ work, I haven’t figured out the issue with the Certs not being installed on the device I have. Also, they are wanting me to finish with the story about the NAC issue.

I was excited to head on home and get to cleaning up some more of my electronic / computer stuff. I want to begin to really get rid of the JUNK in my life. I am also getting to organize the shit I do have so I can actually find it when I want it. I’ll be also trashing more old boxes for things I have no devices for and getting rid of hard drives that for some odd reason I’ve been hording.

Got a text from Autumn and I have to admit I wanted to head over to Parma and have a few beers with her. Aimee was working the bar AGAIN, she has been there a lot since Lindsey is out on a cruise. She certainly is very easy on the eyes, and continually keeps my attention.

Came home and did get through some of the Office closet and did some organizing of things in the lab.
