AST advtange adventure 4050d 486DX2/50 Mhz question??

[Jdscrapz]

Anyone ever find one of these things?
Its an allinone computer aswell..
I couldnt find anything on ebay about it or much on google.
Its old but still boots up!




Thanks!

I can't say that I have, but I wouldn't scrap it.

If it has a Cyrix CPU (My research shows that it should), that's a good thing. There are Cyrix collectors out there.

It may take a while to sell, but it's a cool collector's piece!

Thanks I knew it had a pretty kick ass CPU! cant wait to see if i can get some original games installed for it haha like duke nukem

[matador]

Nothing wrong with that! I'm a Cyrix fan (I like orphaned brands in general), and I can tell you that currently the Cyrix chips fetch a little premium, but the market should grow. I know a lot of the Cyrix stuff has been scrapped, so the remaining stuff is getting rare.

I'd keep it for a while. If you can sell it on eBay, I think it would bring at least $100, but it may take a long time to find that "right person".

I'd enjoy it in the meantime. I doubt you'll ever see another one.

I'll take this off of your hands. Let me know if you still have it. I'm am going to PM you with my direct contact information so we can set something up.

If I can't PM you, check out my profile. My ICQ contact information is actually my phone number for now so you can get in touch.

Thank you

[macaroni345]

It looks like I can't PM you without buying a membership so please so please send me your contact info if you're interested in selling this to me via ebay or whatever. I believe I can receive private messages on here but then again, i'm not sure. If that doesn't work, please just post your contact info here so we can connect. thank you!

It's good that your reading thru the old threads but this one is from Mar.3 2015, don't think you'll get an answer.

Well crap. How do you suggest I find other posts for these same types of systems? Other than the obvious ebay router? I'm just trying to relive my childhood here! LOL

Good to be a kid again!

[matador]

You can try an ad in the classifieds section- a "Want to Buy" post may yield something???

We had a buyer of vintage computers but she vanished......I get tons of vintage stuff and would love an outlet for it other than having to go thru the whole ebay thing......TAKE THE PLUNGE and become one of our buyers trust me you will get plenty of responses!!!

[macaroni345]

Indeed it is! Being a kid again will never get old!

[macaroni345]

Do I have to pay to do the whole "classifieds" thing you're suggesting?

[macaroni345]

By the way guys, after a bit more digging, it turns out the one I had was an AST Adventure 4066d. I remember it being a 486dx2 66mhz not a 50mhz. I had the upgraded model apparently. I'd love to get my hands on one of those again. Found a video on youtube referenced below if you want to see what i'm talking about. Not being a paid memeber, I can't post links so it's just the title and i'm sure you can find it just by that.

Thanks for all the help gents. Please get back to me on the questions when you have a spare moment! thx again. take care and good luck to all of you!

It's not so much a membership as it is # of posts.

[macaroni345]

Original posts or just regular responses like these? What's up bud? Wanna chat? LOL
