Organization: The Ohio State University
Distribution: usa
Date: Fri, 24 Jul 1992 17:42:51 GMT

I have a new in the shrinkwraped box 120Mb drive made by Conner, model number 
CNR120Mb.  It is an IDE drive.  I would like to get $350 for it.  This includes
any or all of the following software installed if wanted.  Price $375 with OS/2
because it takes about 40 minutes to install.

A.  OS/2 2.0
B.  Dos 5
C.  Windows 3.1
D.  Word Perfect for windows 5.1
E.  Word for windows 2.0
F.  Lotus for windows
G.  Page Maker 4.0
H.  Harvard Graphics 3.0 DOS
I.  Stacker or SuperStor, doubles the hard drive 240Mb.
J.  Games: Wolfenstein 3D all episodes, Chuck Yeagers Air Combat, F117A, Aces 
of the Pacific, The latest D&D version,

If this interests you, let me know.  As of now, the drive is still in the box
and unformatted.

Quite simply this is the deal...
The aforementioned bobs@aplcen.apl.jhu.edu posted a letter 
to misc.forsale.computers a bit back detailing an Archive
tape drive for $250 that he wanted to sell.  Well, 
considering the price i accepted quickly.  Then came the 
first problem.  Soon after i accepted the deal Bob mailed me
a note saying that $250 had changed to $275.  It was sleazy
but still a good deal, so i accepted. (again) then came his
final note detailing how he was going to break our agreement
once again.

Well, there you go.  I know i am biased for having been

error correction, and MNP 5 and British Telecom Lempel-Ziv

and protocol for optimal communication with the other modem.

386DX SYSTEM FOR SALE

I am selling my old Gateway 386 System (circa June '89).
It is a 20MHz 386DX system with 4MB RAM, 2 floppy drives,
a 80MB hard disk, 2 serial ports, a parallel port, and a
game port.  Everything works fine on it, with the possible
exception of the hard disk, which gets occassional data
errors.  I am willing to sell it whole or in parts.
I estimate a similarly configured system today would cost
about $1250 (*sigh*, I paid almost $3K for it 3 years ago).
I'm asking $800 for the whole thing.  Feel free to make
offers on the whole thing or any piece.  The system consists
of the following components:

* Everything is sold AS-IS and without any warrantee.

HBA-ST02 SCSI Host Adapter:
NEW: $125

	Seagate ST-02 compatible SCSI host adapter with 2
	floppy disk controllers.

Seagate ST296N:
NEW: $369
ASKING: $220

	2 serial DB-25 ports, 1 centronics parallel port, 1 game port.

   I posted this for best offer and received quite a few nonsense

System will come COD.

	1 month old magitronic keyboard
	2 serial/parallel/game port on HD controller

  The case isn't very pretty, ie its been moved a few times and 
has accquired some scars. I have had no trouble with any of the
insides and am selling to make room for a 486/33 system. I would

This is an Agatha Christie style, who dunnit game.  You play inspector
Raul Dusentier aboard a ship in the Mediterranean only to find out the 
host has been murdered (sound familiar?).  You must search for clues
and question anyone you can find.  You have from 8:00 am until the
ship docks at: 6:30 to discover the killer, but don't worry - time
only advances when you do something right.  A map of the boat lets
you "warp" around the boat quickly.  The conversation feature manages
a list of people, events, and objects to talk about when new topic
are broached and new objects discovered.  Save/restore feature is hardly
needed except to allow you to go to bed - the game won't really let 
you make a mistake (except when identifying the murderer).  

The graphics and animation are pretty well done.  The english is a little
rough in spots (its a french conversion).  Though the game is very serial
and uses a point and click interface, it is far from easy.  There are
many objects in each room, sometimes dozens.  I found it rough going and
would sometimes spend hours just trying to find the next correct thing to 
do which would advance the story, but in all fairness, it was always a
fairly brain-dead oversight on my part.  This game is not for everyone.
I found myself running short on patience and I found the ending to be
a somewhat contrived and over complicated (not unlike many stories of
this genre).

The game includes ALL original materials (including registration) in excellent 
condition. 

Will sell for $29

I will pay shipping.  It will be mailed inside a box with packing.
