I need the room in my house, so I'm likely going to have to sell my NeXTstation TurboColor.  I'd like to find it a good home, so I thought I'd check here first.

NeXTstation TurboColor
- 68040 33MHz
- 32MB RAM
- 1.19GB hard drive
- OPENSTEP 4.2 installed
- ADB mouse/keyboard
- ADB soundbox


Also includes original NeXTSTEP 3.0 package that contains CD-ROM, boot floppy, release notes, etc.  Got this from a forum member here, and it looks like it originally was shipped to the Stanford book store direct from NeXT Computer.  I'll likely include my copies of "The NeXT Book" by Webster and "NeXTSTEP Programming" by Garfinkel & Mahoney.

Includes NeXTSTEP 3.3 and OPENSTEP 4.2 backup discs as well.  And, all the pertinent cables are included (monitor conversion cables to VGA, ADB cables, SCSI cable, power cables).

If you are in the Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas area, I'll even throw in a Mitsubishi DiamondPro 21TX CRT monitor that works (most of the time) with the NeXTstation. Consider the monitor free with purchase.

Will accept offers on the lot of items (I don't really want to piece this out).  Everything is in very good condition, considering it's nearly 18 years old!  Everything is working, and I just booted it up and captured some videos of it tonight.  Buyer would pay for shipping and handling if it is not local pickup.  PM me for more info, pictures, or offers.

I'll hopefully have pictures posted by tomorrow and will edit this post with the URL.

Finally was able to post some pics and videos.  Let me know if I'm missing anything that you'd like to see.

Any offers?  If not, I guess I'll go the Craigslist and/or eBay route.  Thought I'd check here first, though.

Thanks - Neil

Quote from: "armus2112"What price range were you shooting for?

Well, here's kinda what I am thinking for the price and how I came about it:

NeXTstation TurboColor $100
ADB sound box, mouse, keyboard $25
Apple 600e CD-ROM drive $30
NeXTStep 3.0 $50
Monitor adapter $5
NeXT Book $15
Obj-C Programming book $10
CD-ROM SCSI cable $15
Other software/accessories/cables included in price
Monitor FREE with local pickup

Total $250


Let me know if that is agreeable, or feel free to make me an offer.  I'd really rather not part it all out, as I need to get rid of it all to reclaim space in the room -- soon.  I can ship everything but the monitor to a US address; the monitor is just too heavy.  Purchaser would pay actual shipping costs.
