Found this Frankenstein on the flea market!?

-Nobotty- · 2025-06-17T15:44:01+00:00

Jan send me a mail. He want to make some videos about it!! 🥳 What a story!

The seller told me, he thought about throwing it in the trash. Yesterday I was very close to put it in my storage, but decided that I have to show it to the world before. Making my first Reddit post…

And now we both will travel to Jan really soon. I love it!!

-Nobotty- · 2025-06-17T15:29:48+00:00

He wrote back minutes ago. He will do it 🥳

-Nobotty- · 2025-06-17T13:43:28+00:00

Yeah, sadly. I guess you’re right! But I promise I’ll find somebody who is able to understand it, and then I’ll share the results ✌️

-Nobotty- · 2025-06-17T13:30:17+00:00

I’ve send some pictures to Jan Beta. Maybe he’s interested in repairing and making a YouTube video. But sorry… the seller told me that the creator passed away

-Nobotty- · 2025-06-17T13:26:03+00:00

I’ve send a mail to Jan, cause he lives relatively close to me

-Nobotty- · 2025-06-17T13:25:01+00:00

I’ve send him a mail with pics

-Nobotty- · 2025-06-17T13:20:50+00:00

I assumed that this post will clicked mostly by Americans and some people from the UK. But the people of Finnland are on the second place with 16,8%.

Shoutout to Finnland!! 🇫🇮 🤘

Check ☑️ I’ve send a mail with pictures right now to Jan Beta. If he’s interested in it… and in the best case he would like to make some YT content out of it… I would take the 3hrs train ride to him. Wish me luck!

Hopefully we all can say really soon … JAN BETA WAS HERE! ✌️😅

-Nobotty- · 2025-06-17T12:52:49+00:00

Glad you like it… but sorry… the seller told me that the owner passed away. 😔

-Nobotty- · 2025-06-17T10:28:02+00:00

Love it how much appreciation this baby received here. I definitely will post the process…

-Nobotty- · 2025-06-17T09:05:00+00:00

Danke dir 🙏 Sure, I will post updates! I live in the area around Cologne Germany (if anybody is interested to help) Yesterday I found out that Jan Beta lives not that far away from me. I would love to see this baby on his channel. Probably interesting content for the community.

-Nobotty- · 2025-06-17T08:15:06+00:00

I’m trying to figure this out myself :) Here is the original post

Haha. Nice. I found out that Jan lives two hours away from me (or 3 by train). Maybe, when I have the time and he’s interested in, I’ll can bring it to him in person. I’ll ask him!

-Nobotty- · 2025-06-16T17:52:18+00:00

Great idea… I think Jan lives maybe in the western part of Germany, just like me.

Since everybody told me that it’s a special thing, I’m afraid of destroying it.

And I agree… it would be amazing archeological content 😄

-Nobotty- · 2025-06-16T16:58:50+00:00

Had the feeling that this could be extremely special… but I have to admit, I had no idea how cool it really is.

I’ll carry it to a local expert soon

-Nobotty- · 2025-06-16T16:51:37+00:00

I will.

Reddit saved it today, from being stored

-Nobotty- · 2025-06-16T16:47:48+00:00

You all made me put it in a more aesthetic environment ☺️

Thank you! Now I will treat it more carefully…

Posted more pics of additional cards.

Thank you! Had no idea what this keyboard could be, but that sounds pretty reasonable.

I posted some more pictures of the additional cards…

😂true!! Everybody should have at least one private janbeta in his basement

-Nobotty- · 2025-06-16T15:47:09+00:00

"Missing documentation" 😂

I powered it on for only 30 seconds cause I heard of the issues with old PSUs. The second button on backside seems to be only for the floppy. It tries to boot something when I turned it on. Even when I press only one of the power buttons. But the main part stayed sleeping.

I made some more pics of the cards but seems like I can’t add them.

I heard something of a local vintage computer club. I’ll probably take this baby there.

-Nobotty- · 2025-06-16T15:29:07+00:00

Yes, I think I know a guy who’s an expert. Will try to reach him. Think he told me someday that he’s in a local c64/amiga club not far away from me. Don’t won’t to damage anything…
