computer and book-manual and adapter for sale-
(1 other cable/plug ?thing goes with it. I have no idea what it is for or what it is. I've forgotten)
any reasonable offer
(plus shipping & padded-box/package, at cost)
I am not computer knowledgeable -at all! (plus I have not owned an IBM/pc since then. I have used Macs so have become even more computer illiterate, if that's possible)- so please send me a message with any specific questions.
this was my first computer (circa 1995-96?) and it has not been used in ? probably 12+ years.
I just didn't have the heart to throw it away because it is such a beautiful thing (butterfly keyboard and that almost leather-like, thick, plastic case- with all due respect, who says Apple/Steve Jobs was the only great computer designer?!)
as far as I can tell, it is in as fine shape as a used computer can be. no broken hinges, scratches, etc. no damage to screen. perfect, mint-condition keyboard (white-glove tech service from IBM, in those days: the keyboard was replaced, free of charge, towards the end of my using it)
the computer was also 'updated' but I couldn't tell you the details- increasing RAM? faster modem? ? whatever else is normal/possible for the computer. (done by someone who knows what they're doing)
- on the bottom, 3 of the 4, tiny, tubber pads are missing- so there are 3 sticky spots.
- also, the battery was removed (professionally) a long time ago
those are the only things I notice to mention--
cheers.
***NOTE: I just read the Forum Marketplace rule that all 'for sale' posts MUST specify an asking price.
I will research this as best I can and come back to edit this post with an asking price- within a few days.
Thank you for your patience--
