 I keep adding to my collection regularly but this is notable. A Kaypro II to
go with my (as yet non-functioning) Kaypro 2X. It was in an incredibly jammed
little junk-store which remains unplumbed by me for now. In Sam's catergization
scheme ,this would rate as a cockroach-market
 There were 2 walls piled high in a narrow shop with everything imagineable ,
leather jackets, jeans and toasters just tossed in a pile on top of each other
with barely enough room to get between. Saw lots of old printers and monitors
but at the bottom of one pile I could barely discern that tell-tale Darth Vader
Blue form. It was dusty and dirty on the outside but clean-uppable and when I
opened it up at home the KB was impeccably clean. It had cardboard inserts to
protect the fdds, and the A drive's insert had a bill for $565 ($185 parts)
with the owners name and phone number. I surmise the owner was told the price
and never reclaimed it. Sounds like I have a Refurbished machine here ! :^))
