A bit of a weird one - couldn't resist (it was quite cheap).

This is an IBM PC (Model 5150) compatible with an Intel 8088 running at 4.77MHz with twin 5¼" floppy drives. As it's a PC there is no hard drive. It came with 128KB, expandable to max. of 512KB ... no idea how much is in this machine.

It was possible to get a small text-only LCD screen so it was one of the very early luggables.

This machine runs on 110VAC so I will initially need to run it via a step-down transformer.
