What is your most rare vintage home computer?
category: offtopic [glöplog]
I have this one Amiga 3400
and also a CD32 Developer edition (this one however is missing parts and dosent function).

Well, I have a Videoton TVC, but without any PSU, an Atari Portfolio, an MSX... not that really rare items, but still uncommon.
Well, my two most rare ones are:
A Pravetz 8D, a Bulgarian clone of the Oric Atmos, complete with Cyrillic keyboard and patched ROM to display the Cyrillic character set.
A motherboard of a Cray T3E I won at the Alternative party
I guess the Oric 1, Atmos and Telestrat also count as rare stuff compared to some other machines.

not very rare and I dropped it last month :/ (yes, I still use it)
Besides the not so rare A500, I've got one of these ...
Powerbook 180
including a fitting number block and StyleWriter Laser Printer. Should all still work like a charm except for
the battery, which is missing anyway.

Technically a computer.. unfortunately i have none of the dev software for it. :(
rarefaction: I think I have that somewhere... do you have all the correct cables, scsii card, etc? One important thing: NEVER - EVER, I repeat: NEVER FUCKING EVER hot plug/unplug the video cable from the devkit. Do it only if both the devkit and the tv/monitor are off. Else you will kill the video output. Really. No kidding. Shit happens. Has happened. At least twice...
The TRS-80 MC-10.
Dbug: I believe it does have a scsi interface yeah, and a built in GD-Rom drive. The one pictured there isn't my exact one. I have photos of mine but its hard to see...
thats mine on the right there undernearth the speaker...
i used the dreamcast keyboard - don't have the mouse and all i've ever had it do is a self-test lol... it kinda just sits there ornamentally :)

Not rare, but not widely spread in europe:
An Atari 600 XL and an 800 XL. The 600 XL is RAM-upgraded and thus more or less the same as the 800 XL (I think).
And an Atari 7800. I should make a demo for this baby, but its video hardware is too crappy to get anything interesting done :)

Attach the keyboard, and you can carry it as a briefcase. It's heavy as fuck though! Got it from a school that was throwing out old equipment. The box also contained the book "Du og dino lærer BASIC". :-)

Phillips NMS-8245 MSX2 (with a disk drive emulator cart and a flashcart):
A friend of mine had this Schneider CPC back in the early 90's when we all had our C64/Amigas (dunno if he still has it):
He also used a custom green monitor (also by Schneider) and an external 3.5" disk drive, because the internal use a special disk format which was hard to get.

And of course:
