Show Notes: Sanyo MBC 1000 "Creative Computer"

Sanyo MBC 1000 CP/M Computer

Introduction

Straight from the Dinosaur Attic is an excellent representative from the end of the CP/M computing days. This is a circa 1985 Sanyo MBC 1000 CP/M computer.

Shown is ONE of TWO available systems. The second system has not yet been cleaned up, tested and photographed.

This is a CP/M computer that boots and runs it also comes with the boot floppy. I believe this is a rare computer to find and an even rarer computer to find working (maybe even more so than the IMSAI 8080's). The Sanyo MBC 1000 CP/M system can also be found in the Smithsonian Museum collection!

More images (slideshow). For any images you can right-click to view them enlarged with more detail.

Dinosaur Attic is a non-smoking environment, so there is no “Joe Camel” effect on electronics (or anything else) where they smell like an ashtray, but after a quick clean-up with a mostly damp cloth and some alcohol cleaner it is as good as it gets. Remember this is a 35 plus year old system so whle it is booting and running you are buying it as a collectible and as is.
