Fairlight-CMI

I'm thrilled to announce that I just added another CMI to my collection!

This one's an earlier machine - a Series I.  Came with the black and
tan keyboard (which could use some new paint) and the original sound
library, as well as the original manuals.

I haven't even had a chance to fire it up yet.  I'm told that the
right drive might be bad.  I might have a couple of spares around here
if that's the case.

How many of these early machines are still out there?  I know that
most were upgraded to the II's and IIx's.

Nice to have a buddy for my IIx!

Tim

Congratulations :-)

I have no idea how many are still around, not many that's for sure.
Where did you buy it ?

Regards,
Harald.
