I received the final part from Peter, and my Series III is ready to go. It has a brand new graphics pen, a CG3 color graphics card and an RGB-01 interface so that many modern monitors can be used. I promised my wife this would be out of the living room by year's end, so I am pricing it for a quick sale. $8500 plus shipping (It cost about $1200 to professionally crate and ship my Series II, so figure about the same). That is just under whatI paid for it in 2007 (with a broken graphics pen, no CG3, no RGB-01, no spare CMI331 and no extra boxes of 8" disks"). I believe I have described the condition and any issues in prior posts about the sale. If you have further questions, please let me know. I would love to find this special machine a loving home where it will see the use it deserves. --- In Fairlight-CMI@yahoogroups.com, "KyleR" <kar_chicago@...> wrote: > > I am finally ready to sell my Series III. Well almost...Peter Wielk is shipping the final part to me, and once it is installed, my CMI will be ready to go.

It could be a small thing or a big thing. It did work when I bought it, and the monitor hasn't really moved since I bought it, so I am inclined to think it is a small fix for someone who could diagnose it. > > I have been using a regular CRT screen from my Roland S-50 setup ( I made a cable to go from the Fairlight CPU to the composite video of the monitor. > > In any case, I will be happy to include one or both monitors in the sale. > > Also included are the following: > -The QWERTY keyboard, with working graphics pad and pen. > -The music keyboard > -External hard drive of libraries from Peter Wielk > -All cables and manuals > > The following be be available to the purchaser of the Series III but made available separately if the purchaser doesn't want them: > -CG3 color graphics card (Peter told me he was planning on making additional RGB-01 boards but I don't have one yet) > -Spare CMI-331 card > -4 still-sealed boxes of 8" DS/DD Floppy Disks (40 disks total). > > It would be great if the sale was a local pickup in Chicago, but I will ship to most places in the world at cost (To give an idea of costs, it cost me about $1200 to professionally crate and ship my IIX to Australia). > > If you have any interest, please email me and I will be happy to provide detailed specs, condition reports and photos. > > Thanks. >
