I'd have thought this was worth saving if it's
related to the 5150 XT, or at

motherboard, purely because I guess people upgraded them as soon as they
could afford to.
Do you mean 5150 PC, or 5160 XT?
By "64K" MB, do you mean 16K - 64K? or 64K - 256K?
The 5150 PC had FIVE slots, cassette port,
available in 16K-64K (4116 8/1981) or 64K-256K (4164).
The 5160 XT had EIGHT slots, no cassette port,
available in 64K-256K or 640K.
One of these days, I've got to find the original power supply (black with
white switch), and take the extra drives, boards, ROMs, etc. out of my 16K
5150 before I sell it. Are people actually paying money for those things?
