I am about to buy a large collection of vintage computers. Most items I know like the Atari, Apple, and Commodore stuff, but the guy has a Motorola EXORciser. Are these of any value? Just trying to get an idea of what to offer the guy before I go to have a closer look at his stuff tomorrow evening. I don't know if he has any software with it. I've found information on it but nothing about how much it sells for.

I mainly just want to leave myself some room to break even and keep a few items out of his collection. My classic console collection took a turn when I picked up a Commodore 64 a few months back. I've really been enjoying it again and I like for my hobby to pay for itself so to speak. It could wind up on here for sale.

I found these forums the other day while browsing the Atari Age forums. Seems to be a nice place. I've been dredging here for information. I've found some useful stuff, but nothing about the Motorola EXORciser.

I'm pretty sure someone here either had one or asked about one. From what I understand it's a processor tester that goes through the opcodes and checks the result to confirm the chip is working. Not sure what other functions it has or if it could be used inline like a cpu debugger which would be pretty awesome. Given that the value is your opinion of the usefulness. Unfortunately I don't know more about it or if it needs additional boards or exercise programs to run, etc and never used one myself. You'll probably get some other replies. I think you could probably sell it for $50-60 but that's just my wild guess and what I might offer if I wasn't tangled up in some other quandries. I vaguely recall one being offered for more like $120 but that could be me misremembering and I don't recall if anything came of it.
 
Man. He chickened out on me. At least he did so before I drove an hour down to his house. He started pulling the stuff out and decided he wanted to do something with it. Thanks fine by me. As long as the stuff is being used. And to be quite honest, there was a some stuff there better off in his hands than mine. He did have a TON of stuff though. Maybe next time...

If nothing else, this whole ordeal had me digging up information of older items I have no knowledge about. And knowing is half the battle :p

I'll still be hanging around these parts. I'm sure there is a lot of useful information to be learned here.
