Hi!

I'm drowning in loads of books and magazines that I have double.... You can get the ones you're interested in for free if you pick them up in Nijmegen or if you pay the shipping.

A full list is here:

(Note: at the moment, only the books and magazines parts are completely up-to-date, but feel free to ask me about other items as well...)

Hey guys: it's FREE! L@@K! etc! ;-)

L@@@@K !NS!D5!!!!! OMG!!!!!111

I'm intrested Manuel, but i've got to check out wich one's i already have...
That can take some time.

Hi Manuel,

Do you have any english-language books? I would love to get hold of any service and user manuals in english

Please let me know.

Thanks!

doba: Sorry, almost all is in Dutch.

shaiwa: please let me know a.s.a.p.

sob ! why i can't speak and read Dutch. It's awful !
You're very kind for your gift.

Thanks buddy

I still have some of those left! Please let me know if you need some old Dutch mags or books...

By the way, if someone also needs a plain 8250 with a dead battery, but otherwise working fine, let me know. You can have it for 5 euros.... But only if you will put it to good use (I bought it to prevent it from being thrown away...)

What are the costs to replace the battery?
I have two NMS 8250, one with a dead battery like yours.

Should be pretty low... I don't know if the 8250 uses the same batteries as the 8245 does, but if it does; they still sell those as battery packs for cordless phones. IIRC the MSX uses only two, while the phones I'm talking about use three, but you can easily 'extract' them from the battery pack. If you have a soldering iron, you could prolly do this yourself in less than half an hour. Step one would be to have a look at the old batteries, then try to find something similar... If you can't find a suitable replacement for a normal price, you could also try replacing them with normal AA rechargeables (NiCd).

Meitsneardark went to Nijmegen to pick up some magazines from Manuel yesterday... after that he brought them to me Thanx to the both of you!

I replaced the battery of my 8250 a few years ago. IIRC, the battery costs about 2 euri.

I took out the old one, took it to the local electronics shop and got a similar one (lot smaller than the original, but the same specs: voltage and mAh) wihtout any trouble. No need to disassemble cordless phone battery packs...

Perhaps someone can post some pictures of the 8250 mainboard+battery, for the n00bs who have an 'empty 8250' as well?

/me points to /me ^_^

W76NearDark: you're welcome, I hope you can put them to good use

Also, webmouse visited me today and took a whooooole lot of stuff! I got rit of most my magazines and some books. He also took a left over VG 8020, a joystick, an NMS 8280 with 7MHz and some more MSX stuff.... Hoei! Good luck with it webmouse! I hope you will develop some great stuff for MSX!

If someone still wants some free books or magazines, please check the updated list on my page (URL in the first post of this thread). I mainly have PTC Prints left, but also some other mags and books.
