Those go for around $500.
I had one of those. Had it overclocked to 160mhz, beat the pants of a P100.
I think I paid $150 for the board and chip about a year and a half ago. I
wonder what that'll look like next to the systems 10 years from now?

[Overclocking]
I once had a PC/XT overclocked to 25 or so MHz. It caught fire...
Basically, I just pulled the chip marked 25 MHz from a dead 386
and put it where the XT's ship was. It took about 10 minutes to start emitting black
smoke.
This was before I knew they were useful...
