Compaq Portable I, Model 101709, Hardcard (Hard Drive), parts/repair

[themikepeng]

Please make a reasonable offer. Pickup can be arranged in Southern California. Otherwise, shipping within US will likely be $40-60.

Appears complete and original. Won't power on... had been fully functional, booting into DOS until recently. Possibly a power supply issue that is a relatively simple fix. Really hoping someone here can repair/ cannibalize for parts.

Keyboard screws are loose but included.

Case also has a chip towards the top edge, but is in great cosmetic condition otherwise.

Compaq's first ever computer and one of the first PC compatibles, definitely a museum piece!


PS. I also have a working Gateway Pentium III machine; if picking up, I can include it for free.

Last call. Willing to give for free locally, otherwise have no choice but to send to scrap. Have to make room this weekend.

I'd hate to see this scrapped, but don't live anywhere near you.

Is the hardcard proprietary? I may be interested in the hard card if no one wants the machine as a whole, provided it's not some strange proprietary thing.
