- The one I bought was the same machine, in beautiful shape (no burn-in on
- screen, really clean, no scratches or dents, keyboard OK, etc) for only
- $180 over the net - honest! I think that any 8088 or 8086 machine can
- only get $250 TOPS topday with the prices on all the high end systems so
- low. I think $180-200 is very fair for this machine.
