That makes more sense. I also assume you mean an Osborn model 1. Adam
Osborn was not involved in the Coleco Adam. I'd guess about $20.00 sans
docs etc. A machine complete with docs and boots would be worth another
$10.00 I guess. I think some of the others might disagree with my
pricing, saying it is too high. You have to evaluate for yourself.

The Osborne 1 is a 64k machine which runs a version of CP/M 2.2. It has a
Z-80 processor at 4mhz and one or two floppy drives. Some may have an
internal 300 baud modem which slid into a bay in the front. They are nice
machines but have only a 52 column display due to the small, composite
monitor. You can connect an external monitor to get a bigger display but
it will also be 52 column.
