+Ksarul Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Here is a nice group of cartridge boards. . .for a very reasonable price. Looks like they just sold too--and for an even better price, as he lowered it sometime after I posted the link here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClassicComp Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Is the NanoPEB still being made? I haven't seen them listed for sale on ebay for awhile and would like to get one. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaime came along at an ebb of new TI stuff - we where really blessed for the time he spent churning these out for us. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ksarul Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 The CF7/nano is definitely one of the more widespread late-era addons for the TI. I counted up the feedback he had for sales about five years ago--and he'd sold well over 300 of them by then. Those numbers are quite a bit higher now, as he was selling at least 50 of them a year. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could make some money and not have to make them, Nanos would still exist, win-win. Just a thought. -M 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+arcadeshopper Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 There are problems with his design- poor build quality - I have to test each one and send back the bad ones- dsr incompatibly with original sw- cf card required is getting scarce Better to get a sidecar ram card that you already sell and then buy the tipi for hd/network and/or the sd card I'm working on to plug into the 44pin stack if you need floppySent from my LM-V600 using Tapatalk 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+acadiel Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 There’s a guy who has a printer plotter for sale. I had to warn him to look inside and check for leaked NiCD batteries.... seems as though he doesn’t want to mess with it. I’d hate whoever buys a “new in box” plotter to have a leaked unit to deal with. Even my old one had minor spillage after I removed the ones in it 10 years ago. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+dhe Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 I bought an olivetti model 10 to keep my model 100 company. I asked the lady offering it on ebay, if she could put in a couple of batteries and show the screen - I got the same answer, sorry I don't have time and can't be bothered. I went ahead and purchased with the understanding I might have a unit for parts only or might need take serious repair. That was one of the few times, I've gotten lucky and unit actually was in good shape. Electronics seems to be one of the few fields, where people, on a routine basis, can't be bothered to let you know if something works or not. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My rule is to assume “untested” means broken on eBay. On shopgoodwill “untested” simply means untested. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed in SoDak Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Sticky wicket. If you claim it functions, you might see a bidder file a Not As Described complaint on you to duck out on honoring their bid, even if it arrived in the condition you stated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
