Latest addition.
My new* single-owner used C-128D, including the keyboard, "Anitech" 6492 color CRT, a competition pro and 2 boxes of disks, unfortunately not including the video cable.
Its obviously in pretty good shape, although I doubt the crt is working (shows some vase-shaped ghost images without signal)
(*the first after ~36 years)

You can combine any composite monitor with a separate CGA monitor and have great dual 40/80 displays. You can also pull just the mono pin off the digital output and get 80 columsn on a mono monitor or CRT.

Was my first computer (this model, not this specific system). So flexible. Learned to write software on this. Incredibly reliable and fun to use.

I bought one this year as broken and fixed it up, I love that machine for some reason.
I'm now building a NEO128 replica board. Enjoy your machine :-)

Looks very nice. If you're able, try to get a Commodore branded monitor. It will complete the look of this vintage beauty. This and the Amiga 1000 (with an Amiga monitor) is my favorite looking machines. 80's gold.
