While this is beyond what I would personally pay for one of these...
zooming in
there are titles I've not seen (Microsoft Word, Informix, Business
Graphics, etc).
If anyone here is the bidder on this, I'd hope they will work with
someone to
have the software images archived before the diskettes potentially fall into
the age of unreadability (if they haven't already).

Umh, it is badly yellowed, water damaged, and has a big crack in the
case. I guess I just have a different idea of 'fantastic'. The
original boxes is the only cool thing I see at all and they are messed
up from water damage.
They all came with manual sets. They are super common with complete
systems. No other way to read the docs back then. All scanned online now
along with all the software. The extra packages
too. All on bitsavers.
$500 for this is nuts. People give them away all the time and the few
I've seen pass through ebay go for maybe $150 or so in much better
shape.
I have to agree, the condition is not good enough to pay $500. Also there
is no DOS card included. I am of course biased, I got my system for free.
