I have a Donkey Kong disk for my old Tandy 1000 (5.25 inch disk) from Atarisoft. Do any of you guys know what this is worth?

Computer games usually aren't worth that much unless they're special in some way (Either ultra-rare or very desired, like Ultima games). If all you have is the disks, then it's probably only worth a buck (Donkey Kong is a fairly common game on any system)... if it's boxed or you have the manual, it might be worth a bit more, but still not much. Of course, this is assuming it works.... if it doesn't work, then it's worth nothing.

One of the problems with disks is that they deteriorate over time... cartridges are generally worth more (although not all computers have cartridges, and not all games were available on cartridge). The Tandy isn't much of a collectors computer either (compared to the C64 or Apple), so finding people interested in buying might be tough.

Yeah, I figuired that. Though the disk label is awkward, it says "DUNKING KUNG." Strange stuff.
