Microsoft FORTRAN 80 for CP/M 80

[rldipaolo]

I am interested in selling my original, never used, Microsoft FORTRAN-80 for CP/M. In binder with manual and 8" floppy. It was put on a bookshelf when new in anticipation of being used, but never was, and it remained there until a few months ago.

I'm interested. How do I contact you off-thread (@email address)?

Unfortunately until you post more you will not be able to get PMs or emails so it makes it hard to respond to you. So you may want to post a contact info for those of us who are interested to get a hold of you.

Heh. So this is MS FORTRAN 77 for CP/M-80. I wonder if you could call it FORTRAN-157. (There was never an ANSI FORTRAN 80).

Sorry for taking so long to reply!!

I have just recently posted this item on ebay.

You can find it at this URL: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rare-histor...755122?hash=item3d280a17b2:g:WJwAAOSw-CpX-QLO

If you or someone else from this forum wishes to purchase it, contact me through my ebay listing and put in your message as the first line: "mf80 for vcfed", and I'll then send you an offer through ebay to buy it at a 10% discount ($1000 - 10% = $900). You should be quick though, in case somebody comes else comes along and buys it first.

ALSO VERY IMPORTANT!!! This offer is only for members of this forum. If I suspect that somehow this offer was "found out" by someone outside this forum I will immediately revoke this offer - so please keep this info on this forum and don't share it!

Happy (vintage) computing!!!!

MS F80 wasn't terribly uncommon. I'm puzzled why this demands such a high price.

Hmmm... I suspect it will remain on your shelf in a "original, never used" condition for a long time to come... Good luck with your eBay sale.

He was probably comparing prices to those of VintageComputerMuseum

Although on eBay early Microsoft programming tools complete in box like this can often sell for $100+. In good condition and well stored, $200 or $300 wouldn't surprise me too much, although at a glance I don't see anything sold similar enough to compare it to off hand.

But who knows, perhaps Bill Gates is looking for a copy. :D

Maybe I should offer my NIB copy of Microsoft Multiplan for CP/M for $2K BIN offering 20% discount for VCF members.

One has to wonder how interested the OP really is in selling this, since he posted it here and then never bothered to come back again for 11 months.
