I know.. I know.. old POS, but it works - as my accounting machine. (I still have my Classic II also.. table art)
The only problem with it is that it wants to rest the date when I restart it.. like to 1956. It may be feeling old.. but if I remember, there's a battery somewhere that acts like a Pacemaker, that keeps the clock ticking. If so, do you know how to replace it w/o loosing the whole system? Thanks.

It's a 3.6V lithium battery that looks like a regular AA except shorter. On the newer models with a lid for the RAM, you can see it by opening that lid, but it's not meant to be replaced that way - you're supposed to remove the bottom cover and EM shield, which isn't really that hard. On the older models, including the original Bondi, it's harder. Google found this manual.

That's a good price. Whatever you do, don't buy it at Radio Shack. They charge $21 for that battery. A SINGLE battery.
