3.5 floopy
17" crt monitor w/ speakers

You should take it to the antique roadshow. :haha:

"This machine dates back to the Clinton Era. See the vented slots on the front? The designers actually believed that if dust could get inside the machine, it would bridge the RAM together, 'synergizing' it's speed."

You won't see many of these around, I'd say you're sitting on about $500 just in rarities.

I remember when I paid 1400 for a 286 in 1990 or 1991. I thought I had a screaming machine 40mb HD, 14" color monitor and I also had a dot matrix printer. I thought I was cool because I didn't have to go to the school to use a computer.
