I recently picked up a complete-in-box PC-8001. It consisted of the computer, the instruction manuals, a compact BASIC reference pamphlet, monochrome video cable, CMT cable, system demo tape, and the manufacturer's warranty. It was all in great condition.

The machine booted up fine and the keyboard worked well, so I took the opportunity to play River Rescue. Save people from drowning in the river, but it's quite easy to accidentally run them over with your boat, resulting in death.

Someone had applied the labels to the keycap fronts. This usually leads to a dirty keyboard with gunk forming around the edges of the labels, but this was basically immaculate, and the labels were applied with far more precision than most. Nicely done!

The demo tape includes a variety of programs that show off the potential of the PC-8001. This 3D-rendered object is no doubt impressive for 1979, but the draw time was something like ten minutes. Pretty cool, though!

Here's a look at the rest of the contents.

The box was a little rough-looking on top, but the rest was surprisingly nice.

And it also came with a couple of goodies: a PSG (programmable sound generator) and a board to plug into the option ROM socket (function currently unknown).
