I have an IBM XT 5160 that's been mine for many years. PC Tools tells me that the BIOS is dated 1/10/86, and that it's running DOS 3.30.
The monitor is not an IBM, but some obscure make that's amber monochrome. There's also no keyboard (I've been using a junk AT keyboard for testing purposes).
The box seems to work just fine, except that the floppy drive may be defective. It gives me "General Failure Reading Drive A:" no matter what I do or what diskette I try.
So what do I do with this thing? I'll never use it again and it's just taking up space. I checked out eBay, but it looks complicated listing stuff there. There are two on eBay right now listed for $350 and $500, so mine would seem maybe too valuable to just throw away.
