My rule is to pull anything that looks different or interesting. Obviously
a 16-256k logic board is worth preserving, but so are any special looking
cables.
There was no 16-265k logic board. There was a 16-64k and a 64-256k
What is the world coming to when collectors are having trouble locating
original PC cases and value 64-256k boards ?? Am I getting that old?
We all are ;)
These are the 64-256 motherboards, from 1984. Think of it this way,
college freshmen were only 2 years old when these computers were
purchased... Scarry, eh?
BTW, the floppy drives appear to be Tandon 100-2A, with IBM faceplates.
48 TPI DSR.
I'm waiting for the day that some Antiques Roadshow person starts to
Gush about the fine old 'patina' on the metal parts of some floppy drive.
I plan to throw up right about then...
