My wife designed the Kaypro logo while in college. Her grandfather ran Andy Kay's purchasing department (or something similiar). I would like to get a Kaypro for my collection of "antiques", working or not, free or reasonable price. I will pay shipping to NC. Thanks!

If you ask my father Terry Yager he may have one last I knew he had some parts machines. Although that was half a year ago and I know he got rid of alot of stuff, but if you ask nicely he may have one.

I believe it is the Kaypro original.. I dont remember if there is any #'s on it.. Just says Kaypro.. ,2 verticle floppy disks. It has some software ie perfectwriter, CP/M disks.. etc.. a printer in original box... all the original manuals, carrying case, cords..

It smells a bit musty, but it works great & looks great, and with all the original stuff I got it makes a nice addition to any collection =)

This is the only picture I have of it at the momment, take about a month ago.

The Kaypro you're showing in this picture is a Kaypro 1. Surprisingly enough, it wasn't one of the first Kaypro's, but one of the last.

Still, it looks like a nice unit.
