My soon-to-be-ex-husband and I are trying to negotiate a divorce
settlement. I bought a computer during our marriage, so he's legally
entitled to half its value. I have no problem with that, but I want
to know what a fair price is for this computer. The store where I
bought it is no longer in business. Two places told me that the marker
value is "$400-500," but I think it's worth less, based on similar 
systems I've seen for sale on triangle.forsale. All opinions are 
welcome!

This is what I have:

IBM-compatible XT (8088)
20mg hard drive, 5.25 floppy drive
640K RAM
Samsung monochrome monitor
Enhanced keyboard
NEC Pinwriter 2200 printer


Thanks.

Joan
