I've got a smallbacklog of projects myself but the Model 200 is
definitely on my list of machines I want to get someday, so I'd
probably be interested in one. I just have to finish refurbing my Model
1, start refurbing my Model 4, and build an IDE adapter for my Tandy
1400LT first, and then I'm ready to go!

I would be interested in one, or maybe all three.  Retirement time is weighing 
heavily.  How much, plus shipping?

Good evening, 
Looking for a home for 3 Tandy 200 project machines. I'm sure they just need 
some re-cap action, but I have enough projects to last three lifetimes, and 
although I'm pretty handy at fixing things, I just don't have enough experience 
to get these things working again. They all seem to have a fault where, they 
will power on, but display lines in video, no matter what I seem to do. I've 
pulled the battery out (I think part of the problem is the lack of a battery 
causes the memory to be initialized in a inconsistent state), and although I'm 
not aware of widespread issues surrounding through-hole capacitors, there seems 
to be some suggestions that re-capping these M200's will fix them.
That being said, I bought these in an attempt to repair them and give them away 
to good homes, spurred by attending Tandy Assembly for the first time last 
year. Hoping that I can either fix them, or donate these to someone who can fix 
them, if anything to lessen the pile of projects I currently have.
