I'm pretty sure that the single sided drives were long gone by the time
the 256K motherboard came out.
Of course, I've already proven the worth of my memory, so. . . :)

Note from the description that it is probably NOT "one of the
earliest" which had a motherboard with 16K chips and was available with
as
little as 16K, upgradeable to 64K. But it COULD be one such, and later
had a 128K RAM card added.

Hi,
I have one of the earliest IBM PCs. I don't know if this is something
you would be interested or not. As I recall, it was upgraded from 64k
of memory to 192 and it has a single-sided 5 1/4 disk drive. It is in
my mother's attic in Baltimore.
