Hello you forum-people... I've got my X68k's sorted at last (I have been collecting years of this stuff and I have too many computers anyway), and these two must go. I have unfortunately no time or interest in fixing them myself. I have NOT tried fix them either, just tested them and you can read description below. I haven't been either very active in this forum, so you may think who the heck am I and can I be trusted, but you can ask opinion of that from the keeper of this forum (Lawrence). Or take a look on my feedback in Ebay (stt1).



X68000 ACE

- black twin tower, VERY good covers, almost like new
- in a boot gives the "common" corrupted SRAM-message
- I couldn't get this boot from the disk
- has been tried with a IO-board from another computer and then it works well, plays games etc.


X68000 SUPER-HD

- metallic black twin tower, good covers (some marks from usage, some scratches and scuffs etc. - NOT broken)
- boots fine, plays smaller games, but it isn't stabile on bigger ones
- I assume that there is a broken ram-chip in the upper RAM area (over 1MB portion), memtest software exists nowadays, but I can't write a floppy for driving it at the moment
- scsi-hard drive included, no idea if there is software, it spins at least


BOTH computers will be sold with original power supplies inside (disconnected wires). I have NOT tested the power supplies, I used external ATX-supply instead while tested the units. Also, I don't quarantee that the disk drives will work. I used surely working drive setup from another computer while testing. Assumably the drives wont work (need caps change etc.). Happy for you, if they work after all...


NOTE: you can get one working computer from these  if you take the IO-board from SUPER-HD and install it to ACE (remember to use switch.x for changing the amount of RAM from 2MB to 1MB, or buy the 1MB add-on for ACE).


Oh, price? For both together 100 Euros + shipping costs. If sold separately, 70 Euros for piece + shipping costs. You can pay by bank transfer (IBAN and BIC codes available) or by Paypal. All payment expenses are to be paid by buyer.

FYI, I can vouch for Saku's reliability, I've known him for years.

At the moment both computers are reserved!
