Well, I think so anyway. I found a local guy who had a stash of 5
Lisa systems in a storage locker. He is moving out of his apartment
and wanted to get rid of his stuff, so I bought it from him for a
reasonable price. I picked up three Lisa 2/5 systems (one in an
original Lisa shipping box with original Lisa mouse), and two Lisa
2/10 systems. He also had 12 ProFiles I was able to get as well.
There appear to be both 5 and 10 meg ProFiles in the lot. (After
getting them home, only five give me a steady READY light, however. )
Only one of the 2/10 systems has a working Widget hard drive. The
other one appears to have bad bearings on the drive mechanism. It
initially spun up with a rather deafening roar, but died after about
30 seconds. I haven't been able to get that one to spin up since
then. The Widget drive that DOES work actually has SCO Xenix 3.0
installed. Is this somewhat rare? Are disk images available online
anywhere? (Should I need to reinstall.)
One of the 2/10 systems is more of a parts machine. I can't seem to
get any video on the screen.
Of the three 2/5 systems, one appears to be missing the Lisa Lite
board. Two of the 2/5 systems appear to have screen modification kits
installed.
Other stuff I got: 2-port parallel card, Sun Remarketing 1.5MB
upgrade card, Sun Remarketing SCSI card, two copies of Lisa 7/7
office system with manuals, several copies of MacWorks (including
MacWorks + II with PFG), and a set of printed manuals for the Lisa
Pascal Workshop.
The one thing I don't currently have is any ProFile cables. So, I'm
off to find a solution for that.
I guess if someone needs anything specific components, I might be
able to help.
