Rare TI Items

Recommended Posts

I found some rare TI items in my basement that I am looking to sell. I was going to go the eBay route but then remembered you guys here on AtariAge. If anyone's interested in any of the items below, get back to me with an offer and let's see if we can work out a deal. I am willing to sell everything individually, so don't worry about feeling that you have to guy the whole lot. Here's a list of what I have:

 

Prototype Cartridges (All tested and working)

The Milliken protos listed below were part of a school series where they packaged 2 games in one cartridge. These were either never released or only released to schools in small quantities, as I've never seen a finalized version of these. The single versions of these games of course were released for home use, but these prompt you to select which game you would like to play on the title screen of the game as they come two to a cartridge. Milliken Manager was I guess a way for teachers to keep track of student's progress. A disk is needed to run the Milliken Manager cart, which nobody has yet come across. I should note that this this the complete Milliken 2-in-1 school series set, as there were 6 2-in-1 carts plus the Milliken Manager.

 

1. Milliken Integers/Fractions

2. Milliken Subtraction/Multiplication

3. Milliken Equations/Measurement Formulas

4. Milliken Decimals/Percents

5. Milliken Division/Laws of Arithmetic

6. Milliken Number Readiness/Addition

7. Milliken Manager

8. Scott Foresman Fractions 1

9. TI-Writer

10. Multiplan (shows up on selection screen, but then goes back to TI title screen when selected. Might have to do with the fact that it needs a disk to run the program or maybe 32K attached).

 

Hardware (Tested and working except the last TI-99/4)

1. Boxed TI CC-40 computer (has a sticker from Rockwell saying it was property of Ken Modesitt who was one of the PLATO developers for the TI-99/4A. I got these items from him).

2. TI-99/4 Computer (x3), I have 2 overlays and a manual, and only 1 power supply. Note that the manual insides are no longer attached to the cover since I guess the glue holding the cover has worn off through the years). The years of the manufacture of the 99/4's are 1979, 1981, and a blank one (nothing filled out on the stamp on the bottom). Interestingly, the 1979 one (I think LTA 4879) has a smooth under surface, not textured like on the later 99/4s, and also the power switch turns on in the opposite direction than the later 99/4s.

3. TI-99/4 Computer with a mismatched TI-99/4A silver back top plate (the 99/4 metal plate towards the back was missing, so I put one on from a broken 99/4A). NOTE: This computer will run but it seems the graphics are messed up and the cartridge port does not work. Might make a good project computer for someone that wants to try and bring it back to life.

 

Feel free to drop me a line here, through PM, or e-mail at brop99@hotmail.com with any offers on these items. I'll probably leave these here for a week and then put them on eBay for whatever remains. Thanks!

Tempted by that CC-40. Never owned one. Probably more of a curiousity than a useful item, no?

I'll have to let someone with more knowledge on the CC-40 chime in, but I think it can be used to print out plots and graphs in color even. So it could have some fun qualities in addition to being a curious item.
