An opportunity to own an historically significant piece of computer technology: IBM's first computer for home use.This system, originally purchased in 1984, was used once or twice for amusement and has been contained in the original boxes for the past 40+ years in environmentally controlled storage.
The system works as shown (just before positing, I wrote some Basic programs that played sounds and changed the background color of the monitor).This offer includes:
- IBM System Unit
- IBM Keyboard
- IBM Keyboard Overlays
- IBM Monitor
- IBM OEM Power Supply
- TV Interface
- Printer Cable
- Basic in ROM
- Manual: Hands on Basic
- Manual: Setup and Learning Guide
- Manual: Disk Operating System
- Manual: Guide to Operations
- Disk: Sampler (Unopened)
- IBM PC jr Color Paint ROM (Did not test)
- All in original boxes and packaging
Note: Boxes have some discoloration but are structurally sound. (After all, they are over 40 years old.) Additionally, the keyboard was opened and the terminals cleaned of slight battery corrosion.
The documentation is in perfect, original condition!!!
As you might expect, there are some slight smudges\discolorations in places. The photos show all. The yellow on the image containing the Sampler and Keyboard overlays are due to the way the photos were taken.
Please contact me before purchase regarding and concerns you may have. I will provide the 4 AA batteries for the keyboard so you will be able to use the system right away.
It is being offered "as is".
