Hi,

Sure $150 plus shipping would work for me sounds fine to me, I am in 
Halifax on the east coast of Canada, if you provide me with a shipping 
address I can get you an estimate on shipping.

I have a 35731A that is the 110V North American version that I could
part with for a reasonable offer, however it is quite large and shipping
outside of North America would probably be very expensive, not to
mention the 110V 60Hz power requirement.

I have an HP 9817 and 9133D disk drive that I am trying to get going. The 9817 
has a 98204B composite video card. I can mess with the settings of a composite 
monitor enough to barely read the text on the screen, which indicates that the 
machine is trying to boot from device A. I tried to make an image of the hard 
drive in the 9133D using Dave's MFM emulator, but the drive is pretty much 
toast and I wasn't able to recover much from it. If I connect the drive to the 
computer, it fails to boot and goes into BASIC.

I do not have a compatible HP monitor or HIL keyboard to use with the machine. 
I was planning on building a PS2 to HIL converter, but having an actual 
keyboard would be far easier. Likewise, having a monitor would be easier than 
abusing a normal composite display into working.

It looks like there were a bunch of compatible monitors back in the day. The 
35721 and 35731B are mentioned on the HP Museum website.
