I think the 122 might have spaceinvaders. Not sure if it's worth the $40 shipping, but that's up to you guys.

I just bought a lot of 10 terminal M101 boards to convert, so i will pass on these, but I would love to poke at that 122.

Definitely space invaders, but the board is in somewhat rough looking shape.

I think this is precisely the kind of restoration ezrahiliyer would like to do. Sorry to hear that you're preoccupied now!
Most of the modding can be done on your own once you break through the psychological barriers.

Ezrahilyer does excellent work, and would turn those "dog" Model Ms into top-grade workhorses.

I am not sure what "restoration" there is to do on the Hi-Tek 122. If that is the same model that I sold Hypersphere a couple of months ago, it was plug-and-play PS/2 under Windows 7.
"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."

I would get them all if I had the space and time to do them all, but I am a little backed up with 10 terminal M 101s to do, I have 3 M122s on the way, I have 3 regular model Ms ready to go up forsale, I have 3 more on the way, I have 9 Apple Alps boards to do.... Yeah, I can only do one thing at a time :-) lol
