I've got into my garage an IBM 5120 machine
with his printer and an external
diskette unit with 8 inch flops.
I've got also all documentation and technical documentation of it together
with all operation disks.
It's running on APL (A Program Language) and it is working.
Does someone know if this is a machine that is worth something?
Is this another name for the 5100 with APL option? If so, my
experience is that they're made of unobtanium. If it's something
else altogether, I've never even heard of it and would thing it
at least as interesting. Bottom line: it sounds quit cool and
if you don't have room for it, I'll be glad to take it off your
hands. Just send it to...

It's close to a 5100 -- it's a 5110 model 3 (aka 5120) which looks a lot
like a
System 23/Datamaster.
The last one on Ebay went for around $1,200, but it's clearly *not* worth that.
Nadeau's book says $90 to $300.
