IBM PC-JX (was: Reiability of wrong media)

by amirault＠epix.net

Hi, I may be interested in one of the CPU's with a keyboard. If you have any manuals I would appreciate a copy. I think that this is the same as an IBM PCJR. If I am incorrect please let me know. I collect IBM PCJR's and would like to have one from another country. Please let me know what the shipping charge is. Also please let me have a list of wanted computers as I have a Salvation Army Store about one half hour from my house. I am in the north east corner of Pennsylvania, USA. Please contact me direct email to set up shipping arrangements, my email address is > amirault(a)epix.net.
