Time to get a new computer, so I need to sell my old one.  I'm asking
$1650.00 for the whole setup:

IBM PS/2 Model 50
    * 10 MHz 80286
    * Microchannel Architecture
    * 1 MB Memory
    * 20 MB Hard Drive
    * 10 MHz 80287 Math Coprocessor
    * 3.5" Floppy Drive

IBM 8513 VGA Monitor
    * 13" Color VGA Monitor
    * .28 mm Dot Pitch (fine resolution)

IBM Proprinter II
    * 9-Pin Dot Matrix Printer
    * Features 2 Near Letter Quality Fonts
    * Front Loading Sheet/Envleope Feeder (this is the reason I bought
      this printer, you can stick in an envelope without having take
      out the continuous feed paper)
    * This printer has very little use.  I estimate that I have printed
      fewer than 500 sheets on this printer (in 3 years).

Also Included
    * IBM DOS 3.3

This computer has served me faithfully for 3 years.  The only reason I
am getting rid of it is that I have outgrown the hard drive (it's only
20 MB :-( ) and I figure it will be in my best long term interest to
get a 386 while I'm at it (unless I can't sell this one of course).

While I prefer to sell the whole setup at once, I might be persuaded to
break this stuff up if you really don't need something in it.

Send me email and I can get back to you.

Thanks
Robert
