   Hi, I would like to purchase IBM PS/1 with 512K RAM, Monochrome display,
    2400 baud mode but no hard disk. (for $999)
   Could you tell me your experience with PS/1 ?
   Is it a good product ?

In my experience, you should stay as far away from IBM's products as possible.
The chances that you're getting ripped off are near to 100 %.
