Was really surprised to see the 90s ibm mice still in the plastic, only issue now is somehow finding the space for all this 😂

I could pass on the Compaq, but that PS/2 is giving me the jellies! Tell me this cost a lot, lol

The compaq just fills the gap between the ps/2 and an ibm aptiva I have, plus I thought it looked neat. And really not that expensive, got everything in the picture for 250, everything needs cleaning up and maybe some tinkering but i thought it was a decent deal. The guy also had a 5170, some of those ibm all in one units, at least 10 of those thinkpads and literally piles of model m keyboards and various other tech and i was really tempted but 250 was my absolute limit. Out of everything though I was most excited about the factory sealed 90's ibm mice. From what the guy was saying a relative owned a computer repair store and when they passed he inherited all the stuff

The PS/2 model 90 was really high-end for a desktop and cost today's equivalent of $17,000.
It looks nice because it was designed by German-American industrial designer Richard Sapper.

Deskpro XL is super fun - EISA, PCI, built in SCSI and network and potato sound. CPU is on a daughter card and can range from 486 - PPRO

I have two PS2 model 30 and a model 30 286. No IBM monitor. Would let the two 30s go. One has bad hdd. Near Chicago... I have too much stuff...
