Maybe not exactly hardware, but who wouldn't want to have "Bill Gates' Personal Super Secret Private Laptop"!? http://www.ebay.com/itm/BILL-GATES-Pers ... t_44wt_864
I've actually got one of these "books" and it is pretty funny.
There is a VERY attractive and complete Seequa Chameleon computer on eBay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Seequa- ... _841wt_627
Can't quite see the disk labels in the pictures, but the seller says it includes Seequa's MS-DOS 1.25. The only dump out there that claims to be MS-DOS 1.25 Seequa OEM actually contains IBM-PC DOS 1.10.
The Seequa Chameleon is an early IBM PC compatible luggable that competed against the Compaq Portable. From what I have read it is fairly IBM PC compatible, and can run titles like Flight Simulator II. Notably, it has a secondary 8-bit Z-80 CPU so it can also run CP/M-80 software.
There is a very nice looking and complete Eagle 1600 model 1620 on Ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Eagle-1600-Comp ... _485wt_864
Unlike the others I have seen, this one is not a rustbucket and even still has it's front label. It also has the original Eagle keyboard, manuals and floppy disks.
They don't say which version of MS-DOS this has and they don't show a DOS disk. But the earlier ones came with a version of MS-DOS 1.25 that was unusual in that it has hard drive support. (However, the model 1620 does not have a hard drive, the model 1630 did). Another odd thing about Eagle's DOS is that it supports their Quad Density drives for 800K on each disk.
An Amiga Sidecar for the Commodore Amiga 1000. The Amiga A1060 aka Sidecar is practically an XT clone, but it requires the Amiga 1000 for it to actually work.
I've never been able to find an answer to this, but is there any expansion capability on these? Such as an internal or external place to plug in a small ISA card?
Otrona Attache Computer http://www.ebay.com/itm/Otrona-Attache- ... _198wt_864
Notably, this includes an original Attache MS-DOS disk. Winworld already has a dump of one of these, but since this is a non IBM hardware compatible and that DOS does not run on IBM compatibles, a comparison would be welcome.
The Attache is a rather interesting little computer. It has a very "vintagy" style to it. They are Z80 CP/M based machines, but with the addition of an x86 card - which presumably this one has since it includes the DOS disk - they can run MS-DOS programs. There weren't very many of these made but they were sold primarily to the high end science and technology market that were less likely to throw them out, so many have survived.
There is an IBM 5150 with a bunch of software, but the picture is too small to read everything (looks like they uploaded thumbnails?) and they don't show disks: http://www.ebay.com/itm/IBM-5150-Person ... t_42wt_864
It has at least DOS 1.1, Lotus 1-2-3 1.x, and PFS Write for IBM.
Is it just my imagination or have there been a lot of Compaq Portables on eBay latley?
