IBM 5160

Broken 5160 for sale. It worked last year, but I just haven't had the time or chance to actually poke around to see what's wrong. I'm guessing though it's a capacitor. The machine itself is in awesome shape.

It has an MFM (although I don't remember the exact model), and dual 360k floppies. The video card is an Everex EV-659, the memory expansion is a fully populated QUADRAM board (all 640kb), MFM controller, and the floppy controller. The machine is immaculate inside and out, just doesn't turn on (PSU fan starts and stops after a second and nothing). I do not know if the hard drive works or what's on it, but I would guess that it does work (seems to power up). I just don't have the time and money to invest in it.

Asking $50

Buyer pays all shipping and handling! It's heavy!

:interested: depending on shipping to 07083
I cut my teeth on one of these....:lol:

Looking at the photo is a Seagate 251-1, thats a 40 meg.
820x6x17.. Kill me I still remember most of the seagate drive geometries.

I sold alot of these back in the xt/at days.

Nice computer, wish I had room.

Later,

:coffee:

Anyone?

$50 obo?

Interested, depending on shipping costs to 40422. I know these things are heavy... holding breath...

Is there a clock battery on the clock ram and whats the state?

Sent shipping cost to Brian.

The QUADRAM card has an RTC, and the software can be found online decently easily. The battery is a custom job though (2x AA's iirc), it was a replacement of the Varta battery that was on it.

It's been boxed up for a while now, I don't remember exactly off the top of my head.

Sending funds via PayPal to mikerm after receipt of shipping costs. Thanks!
