    Description

    Offered here is VERY RARE Vintage FRANKLIN ACE 2200 Computer.  Not sure how many of these were produced but are
    definitely
    hard to find, especially packaged units.  These were issued has Apple IIc clones and in fact were superior in features to the Apple IIC as they had many built-in features.  The computer includes the keyboard, original packaging with inserts, manual, and a copy of the Franklin boot disk however I could not get the boot disk to read.  However I do know the drive works as I was able to load an Apple IIc utilities disk as can be seen in the screenshots.  Because I could not get the original Franklin disk to read, I was unable to test the keyboard however, the keyboard is complete and lights up as it should when attached to the computer.
    Computer shows some normal wear for a computer of this vintage but is in overall good condition.  Outer box shows definite signs of wear but is still intact and very displayable.  These model are hard to find and will make a proud addition to any computer, Franklin or Apple collection.  No further testing done.  I can not offer a warranty on vintage electronics being over 20 years old.  Offered as parts or repair; AS IS.  However at the time of listing, the computer does function as I describe.  I ship world wide.  Please check out my other listings.  Shipping is estimated.  Thanks for looking!
