Quote:Coming to computers from the professional side, I couldn't envision a personal computer without a hard disk, so my first PC was a PC-XT. Cost me the price of a small car, but was worth every penny.
Those old 1BM-XT's may have been expensive but they did something that made PC's a lot cheaper, they standardized hardware. I still have some of them because I always thought they would be worth something one day.
The problem now is most people forget they had weird requirements. I blew one up recently because they used different keyboards.
