The auction is for a very clean monochrome original 5150 PC with every bit
of verison 1 software.

My bets are it will go for well over the $1200 start.

FWIW, we were surprised to discover that no one at CHM had never bothered
to aquire a 5170 (PC-AT) or RT/PC.

Now, I'm trying to find clean original IBM 5 1/4" inch half-height drives
for the 5170 we got, and the correct vintage keyboard.
