I'm looking for a few old/vintage computing parts, it's a pretty long shot that I'll find most of these but what the heck can't lose without trying.. 
Location: I'm in Port Elizabeth, I would be OK with having something shipped though.
EDIT: Don't really need this board anymore, managed to fix mine.
Mecer B870 486 motherboard:
I'm looking for this motherboard or at least the manual for it, I have one but cannot get it to recognise the keyboard, I think I might've screwed up some of the jumper settings, or I just broke something on it.
It has to be that exact model I'm not really interested in other 486 boards (I have another model anyway).
Here's a photo of the board for comparision: http://i.imgur.com/FjdIjek.jpg
DTK PIM-106 8088 motherboard:
Another motherboard I'm looking for. In this case I'd possibly be interested in a different model provided it had a compatible layout. Layout can be viewed here: https://th99.bl4ckb0x.de/m/C-D/30062.htm. Basically it just has a single 8-bit ISA expansion slot. I really would rather have the same model but I know that it's pretty unlikely I'm gonna find one..
Halikan Chaplet NBD 486 laptop:
I have this laptop but it just went dead one day, I've been unable to figure out what's wrong with it. I'd be interested in another (working or not) to breakup and try restore mine. However I'm not super bugged about this so pretty much only if it's going for a good deal. Don't be shy to tempt me though, worst I'll do is say no..
Commodore 64 1541 Floppy Drive:
This one isn't really uncommon, I'm sure someone has one ;o .. Fairly common on EBay but shipping them here quickly makes them very expensive so I'd rather look for one locally.. Also vaguely interested in other C64 peripherals, I have the "Datasette" tape drive thingy though so not that one (or the C64 itself as I obviously have that too
).
Post here or PM me if you have any of these you'd like to sell..
Thanks.
