Got my first computer in 1987 - Listed at $3600 and paid $2400
since I could buy it through the Mat-Su School District.
It was a IBM with 512K of RAM and a 20-meg hard drive. State of
art at the time and a darn good deal at $2400.
I saw quite a few Macs like Barry's at the school district
offices, I think Apple was making inroads in the education sector
at the time.
Don't throw it out! Could be worth something to you as an antique
or museum piece.
