40 years from now someone will be cleaning out all this vintage stuff from eWaste Ben’s garage that he kept😅
Those Power Computing towers are actually Mac clone machines. Quite rare and valuable these days
I definitely think this is 10 time more valuable in one part than for scrap
You should have pulled up the car right into the garage :)
He never thinks of it.
Museum pieces. You might have small fortune sitting there. Research it all before you decide what to do. Amazing! Cheers from Cincinnati, USA
Like finding a Topps Mickey Mantle baseball card from 1952!
This is an insane pickup, Ben. If I lived in Australia, I would be throwing money at you for some of this stuff. The Amigas, those Power Computing machines, the Macintosh Portable, those see-through Apple CRTs, and the LC 575 in particular. So many gems in here. Don't sleep on those Power Computing machines, they are Macintosh clones and can go for a lot of cash. The LC 575 doesn't look very special, but just the motherboards themselves go for $100s because they swap directly into Color Classics, giving them a 68040 CPU.
The portrait displays were common for desktop publishing as they could display a whole printed page at once
Call your PC friend right away! He will drool!
Nice video, Ben. Good to see some old-school computers being rescued - hopefully some can be brought back to life sometime. Sorry to hear about tour last chook.
Ben, this must feel like a little kid in a candy store.
The CA 880 is a top of the line external floppy drive for the amiga 1000! Dont bin it!
The clear Apple Displays you brought back are just displays, no computer components used in them. They were used with the Mac Pro G3 towers. Now all the colored ones in bubble wrap were iMac G3s. The lampshade style iMacs were iMac G4s and were made from like 2002 to 2004 I believe. Also, the button below the trackball on the Apple laptop was probably the click button for the mouse.
I was pretty excited when I found two early 90's Mac printers. I was fascinated by the circuit boards, looked cool.
yet another one of those "once in a lifetime" finds. 😂
I can’t believe there’s so much of that vintage stuff around! I remember when that stuff was awesome in grade school in the 80s😂
Hey Ben..., you , my friend, can make YOUR video's as long as you wish. 👍👍👍
The TRS-80 Model 2 was marketed as a business computer. I had a Model 1 and a Model 3 back in the day.
Jackpot! (to a vintage computer collector)
Well those surely are very valuable
Amiga 1000 ohhhhhhhhh my Gosh it's getting better and better. The Plug is called SCART is more an european think.
Very nice, I see a scrap marathon in the future
1:23:56 it is an expansion to Amiga 1000. You connect it to the side expansion port in youre Amiga.
I came to comment on this and saw you'd already done so.
the yellowing of the plastic brings back memories lol
Awesome haul and video. thanks Ben
Ben, the next size up from 5 1/4 inch floppy is 8 inch. My dad had a computer business in 1979 and it used 8 inchers. Ran Fortran (the OS) on it.
man i found one oldiee last week and i thod i hit jackpot but that is just aweszzzome wow
Ya ben we could watch you all day you never have to apologize for making your video's to long we will never get bored
Thanks for sharing these pickups it's pretty amazing to see what people hold onto
If that was in the US I'd probably say that collection was related to the schools. Apple was really big in the schools in the 80s and 90s
PAY ATTENTION @ 4:10 mark. Very useful life advice. Just when he was SO CLOSE to having all his stuff at the house cleaned out. 😂
great video as always
Man that a nice collection I wish I had the chance to run into this amazing collection 😊
I just finished selling a ton of old Mac IIe’s and IIgs computers from an ewaste pickup I did. They had great value. Sold several of the Mac monitors as well
You So active on RUclips I just started making videos after seeing yours. will be posting them soon. 👍🛸
really crazy pick-up thanks for sharing
hI ben from across the ditch!!! love watching your videos, I hope you you kept all the old macs or auctioned them off , keep scrapping & have fun kia kaha from NZ
The good the bad the ugly you got to take it. God bless.
Super cool!! I look forward to your videos, i'm glad there was one today. When I was in high school , we had a commodore 64 and then later a macintosh 512, I know those machines cost a fortune back then.
Amazing pick-up Ben! Enjoyed watching! Thumbs up! Jim
Omg what an absolute awesome find Ben you must be in vintage Mac pc heaven thanks for another excellent episode keep it coming
WOW that was some pick up. Don't worry about the amo, they were just shot gun cartridges, back in the day when they used brass too! You need to get back to that skip😀 Sorry about your chook! Great video Ben; must admit I was having a cheeky giggle after the 10th time you were taking about the size 8f the floopy😜
Awesome pickup for Shure thank you for sharing this six stars brother
Wow. I wish I could come over from NZ...you've got a good few things I'd be bringing home, especially one of the portrait displays. I started my career using those!
Great finds! I would love one of those Amiga 1000's!
Wow Ben you got your treasure trove right there. Awesome. I love that apple g3 I wish I had one. I miss the one I get to use back in high school
Amazing pickup
Big score !
Oh wow.... a once in a lifetime find!!
Just found an apple 2 with floppies and controllers.now I've got the bug!nice pick up!
The most valuable is maybe the mac portable. Lot of this stuff is worth a fortune.
It would almost be worth shipping the whole lot to the USA in a shipping container and put it all up for auction
That's a gold mine. Especially the Mac Portable.
Gold mine! Waiting for part 2
The big floppy drives will be 8 inch. Wonderful haul. Well done!
Legacy Mac keyboards are probably most wanted stuff these days
I mean there's tons of value there with replacement parts and scrap. The potable cleaned up and working is worth a pretty penny. Amazing that stuff was all in one spot!
It's amazing the stuff people hold on to and more so because they have a way of finding you Ben. And, in my opinion , no one deserves to have this find more than you do. Thank you for sharing these vintage computers with us. Can't wait to see the return trip to get the rest. You look exhausted Ben. Get plenty of rest and learn to pace yourself.
If there’s any Apple keyboards, semi interested as the keyboard enthusiasts love to restore them back to former glory
A good haul indeed and that small computer with the round base is an iMac G4 and it is collectable and there are videos on YT., which show them being converted with modern parts and in amongst the stuff which you still have to collect is either a G5 or a Mac pro, the front of that computer was facing the wall so I could not be sure of the model.
AMAZING!!!
If nothing else ben, you got a good cardio session from it all!! 😂
Had a radio shack trs80 they did use 8 in floppies. I might even have some. From. T Fore florence sc USA. Enjoy your videos.
holy gold recovery heap of goodness. Nice score
I'm only a few mins in and omg I'm excited for this one! It's my day off and what a banger of a video I've got to watch! 😄👍
Ben , You can setup a computer museum with these old schools. 😍😍😍
Happy too make purchase
I would suggest the they are all from a graphic design/marketing type company, probably the entire IT asset.
Would love to find a haul like that
PMR Scrappers FREAKING DREAM
Finally a great video from you.
that vertical one is a find...
Ben some of those iMac all in one screens have solid copper heatsinks on both sides of the motherboard I've done a few over the years but i cannot remember the exact models that has it...
Wao increíble tantas cosas q podria hacer con todos esos aparatos saludos éxitos y bendiciones ❤🎉😊
The commodore 1000 you got expanion goes on the side where the pcb is, and the cable is a scart connector to commodore monitor. Extern floppy is for Amiga, I think. Switcher for interlace and expansion.
Hi Ben, the Box with the Cromemco board inside is an S-100 computer chassis. The whole thing will probably fetch a few hundred on eBay, even empty. Worst case the backplane alone will go for $100+ alone. The connectors by itself are $10 a pop.
Wow what a score
might look into bring some soft sided semi rigid bags or dividers to put more of the valuable stuff like keyboards etc in the front seat without damaging them , look for some travel luggage those might work justas well
Please give John Titor a call if anyone has a IBM 5100 lying around.
I am so happy they didn't just take it all to the dump. But it seems they knew what they had there.
Sad to hear about your chickens. But they don't live too long do they. Their shed cleaned up nice :)
I liked the long video.
I remember when my elementary school first got I macs.
Within the first minute nothing like letting the customer know that you dont want help while trying not to be rude lol
Very nice video! They say those Macintosh Portable used to cost US$7,300 back in 1989!!!!!
Still worth well over 1K now
Really impressive vintage collection. Portrait monitors is for writers or others i think who want to see all a4 page without scrolling
Portrait monitors were useful for newspaper print editors, columnists, lawyers reviewing documents, etc..
Hi Ben, great vid once again. A lovely haul!
I’ve got a mint condition boxed C64 complete with tape deck, joystick, 50+ games, all leads and power pack……
Is it worth anything these days?
Wow what a pick up 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Televideo like yours seem to sell in the dozens in the US for around $250.00 US.
The vertical Macintosh was very popular in the publishing industry as the whole page could be displayed as it wood be presented for printing. Quite rare
lemmings was my to go game back in the day on amiga a1200 plus
I still got my C64 from when I was 12 ( now 48) the C64 was the second commador to come out the first one was a commador vic 20
Holy cow, did you go back in time somehow!? Man oh man - that's got to be thousands of dollars worth of material there. There's some serious potential there.
The vertical monitor is mostly used for writing lines of code.
That TRS-80 is worth money.
1:19:10 i think it is a complete motherboard, the missing chip is the i80387, a so-called co-processor. Nowadays it is integrated in the main chip. The card is maybe a graphics card, or an i/o board.
😮 WOW, I only have dreams like this.
Your Video is doing very Good Buddy
I wana say wow you hit the mother load but I haven't a clue if any of it is worth anything let alone what some of it is lol
Just amazes me what people throw away! Thats nearly identical to throwing thousands of dollars away in the trashcan
Keeping something just because you spent money on it, though, is usually a bad idea for a company. These would almost certainly all have been owned by businesses or schools, who would have amortised the costs of the capital expenditure over ~5 years, and the assets are then literally worthless to them. They would also not get value in one of their employees using company time (salary time) to try to sell the assets individually for the best possible return price - it would still cost more to pay the employee than they'd recoup. Even sending them off for bulk auction can cost more than it brings in. But yeah - to us, it looks absolutely crazy. I've seen piles of stuff in skips that 10-15 years earlier had represented tens, even hundreds of thousands of dollars of capital expenditure.
id kill to get my hands on this stuff
That Macintosh Portable is worth about £500-1000 GBP 😮
awesome
