My trusty 520ST, purchased in 1985 (this was in the TOS-on-disk days),
finally died (you don't want to know; trust me, it's dead).  Though I'd
seldom used it in recent years, my wife had become quite dependent on
it for her word-processing and label-making chores.  I knew I'd someday
replace it, but I still haven't made up my mind "with what", and don't
wish to spend a lot at this time.  In the short-term, I want to spend
little and protect my software investment.

So, since someone else always seems to beat me to the 'R' key on "for sale"
ads, I thought I'd jump the gun and ask if there's anyone with a 1040ST, or
520ST upgraded to 1meg or more, who's thinking of selling?  I don't need
monitor or drives or s/w, just the CPU.  If so, I'd be interested in talking
price with you.  I'm hoping to find something under $300, but if someone has
a 2/4meg ST or STe they want to dump, by all means consider that a negotiable
limit.  Please send email to the address in my signature.  Thanks (and
apologies to everyone else for the bandwidth-wastage).
