I dumped the TRS-80 years ago. I had Sargon-II too and also Gambit-80
and Gambit-81 from Wim Rens (former Dutch champion).

I still have 2 good old APPLE-2E's. One on 1 Mhz and one on 2 Mhz.
Wanna buy one :)

I have SARGON-II also for the APPLE-2E. So you can play Tiger.
Please start the bidding :))
