That Osborne system has real collector value. If you'd actually closed the drive latch, it might have booted up. The fact that it powers up at all probably makes it worth north of $1000

Osborne is a company that taught us how NOT to sell computers. What you have was selling somewhat well. But they announced next model and features too soon. People stopped buying, waiting for a new model. Because of dropped sales they couldn't get production of new model running and company went under. It's now known as Osborne Effect.

Bless You Two for rescuing/fostering these lovely ladies; you two are making their lives wonderful in their golden years. Humans can be so horrible to each other and to animals who depend on them for health, safety and love. But here you are saving these girls - who have been essentially an income stream - and probably not much more - from imminent death. You two will show them all the love they’ve never had before. ☮️ & ❤️ from Utah.

That Osborne computer has to have a boot disk to boot up. A boot disk contains all the parameters to enable start-up. We used one for record/file keeping. Didn’t have much of a hard drive. Everything was stored on the 5 1/4” floppy.

Hi Mike, I'm a new viewer to your channel and I can't look away!! Your channel caught my eye when I saw you collecting wire from the dumpster and it brought back memories from the 2960s and 70s. My dad use to work for the trash company and at the end of the day he had a truckload of wire and he and his buddies would sit together with sharp knives and cut out the wire. I loved those days and since my dad is long since passed away, I'm reliving those good memories through your channel. Also, love the rescue pooches. Really sweet guys.
