I don't know, Sam, but as one who does a bit of IBM collecting, there seems
to be many more 5140s floating around out there than the 5155s. I have a
perfect 5140 in my collection, but the 5155 has eluded me (so far).

Subject: IBM Portable Personal Computer
I just picked-up an IBM Portable Personal Computer (Model 5155, I believe
its basically a portable XT with dual 5.25" drives and a bulit-in monitor,
512K). [Hey Roger, it's got a handle!] I was also able to find the
Operations Guide for it at another place. Very cool.
QUESTION: Does anyone know how many of these were produced?
