[rescue] FS: Timex Sinclair 1000 in original box, mostly complete, with TS 2040 printer

[Ian Finder]

Well, the iPad was free :)

I wouldn't have bought it otherwise.

And those little pizzabox VAXstations are no fun.

I like the larger, older uVAXes. And shipping one of those alone would be a
few hundred.

Also primarily I don't want new crap to troubleshoot in the DEC department.
Right now I just need some specific bits for what I have.
