You're
right, the old IBM PC
stuff is getting hard to find. I started looking for it about 1 1/2 years
ago and I haven't found a single one in the surplus places.
I have two IBM 5150 machines, and possibly one monocrome IBM screen to
match (but I'm pretty sure the screen is broken).
I've been trying to decide if I should throw them out, or attempt to ebay
them (along with at least one IBM XT, and possibly an AT)
At this point they're just beginning to be collected and the prices are
still cheap (usually) so you may not want to bother with trying to E-bay
them. But if you don't and you still want to get rid of them then let me or
the list know and someone will surely take them. Don't throw them out.
BTW my 5150 has the monochrome monitor but it doesn't have the original
MDA card so if you don't need your's anymore I could use it.
