Item description
Timex Sinclair 1500 vintage computer, one of the earliest portable computers from the 1980s. Comes in a custom briefcase with foam padding to hold everything. Includes the following:
Timex Sinclair 1500 unit. It has a layer of plastic film around the keyboard keys that appears to have been there when the unit was new, and simply never removed.

TV/computer switchbox and RF cable.
Dual audio cable, for connection to a cassette player/recorder (not included; the manual specifically states you will need to provide your own cassette recorder).

Stickers on the documentation indicate that this unit originally belonged to a school, university or library. Everything is in very good condition. Unfortunately I was not able to thoroughly test it as I don't have an older TV with the right hookups. The instructions specify the two-pronged UHF-VHF connectors. I tried using an adapter between the RF plug and the coaxial cable input on my TV but was not able to get it to work. It may require a TV set with the older connector. Sold as-is, no guarantees.
Free insured shipping anywhere within the U.S. International shipping will vary by destination; please ask if interested. Please be aware that due to the weight, shipping outside the U.S. will be quite expensive.
