I would like to donate an old IBM PC to some educational or charitable
organization (preferrably a charitable, educational organization).

It has
   256 kB on the system board
   8087
   10 MB Maynard hard disk
   360 kB full height 5.25" (DS-DD) floppy
   Maynard clock-calender
   IBM color graphics adaptor
   Princeton Color Display
   IBM Keyboard
   Assorted old software & manuals
     IBM PO Manual & Diagnostics
     IBM DOS 2.0
     IBM Pascal Compiler 1.0
     IBM Easywriter (worthless)
     IBM Multiplan 1.0
     Maynard support software

I bought it in 1983 and used it for software development. All parts are in
working order and are stored in the original cartons. I had been using it
for regression testing but now feel that there is no longer any need to
make sure things will continue to work on such an old PC.

The recipient of this system will have to pick it up in the Amherst,
Massachusetts area (Western Mass. - 20 miles north of Springfield near
I-91).

Interested organizations can send me e-mail.  Please include some (short)
information about your organization. I will not be monitoring this news
group for replies.
