That's from our very own Rich Beaudry, who hasn't been seen here for a
while. If I was remotely interested in IBM PC stuff I'd probably have a bid
:)

I really don't see the point in something like this. There are many
easier and cheaper ways to get 9 off 4164 DRAMs (which IIRC, is all this
kit consists of).

Aye, I'm a collector and museum owner as well as an interested
hardware type of bloke so getting an original IBM PC upgrade kit still
in its packaging is interesting for me, though the kit would never be
used because both of my 5150s are maxed out.
Unfortunately, a 4164 kit is 'rather late' for the IBM-PC. Now, if it
were a kit of nine 4116 chips for the original IBM PC1, it would be more
impressive. (the first generation IBM PC motherboard had four rows of
16K DRAM chips with just the first row of nine soldered in, for a total
of 64K on the motherboard- any additional memory had to be on the I/O
channel.) I USED to have two of those first generation motherboards.
Yet another regret is that I don't have them anymore.

Those are still cheap on ebay.
