[cctalk] need a 5150 motherboard

2024-03-28 Thread Just Kant via cctalk
The board itself, including the traces, has to be in good shape. Don' t care about it's functionality, or even if chips are missing. An actual IBM product, regardless of revision. Might consider an entire 5150 box. NJ. Sent with [Proton Mail](https://proton.me/) secure email.
