Ever found an XT before? They're getting harder and harder to find. While I have seen the occasional IBM 5150 and 5160 around, the clones are getting especially hard to find. What was your families first computer? Mine was an XT clone, made out of someones garage! It was back in 1986 and ran msdos. While it wasn't the first computer I used, it was the first in my household. I spent many a weekend playing Digger !! Oh and it had an EGA monitor too. Pretty advanced for back then (couldn't get VGA as it was too expensive).
Fantastic find. If you keep finding machines like this every week you will need to open a museum! And it boots ! My first family pc was the Amstrad CPC 6128, then further down the track a 486.

Kind of amazed the psu didn’t blow a filter cap. Probably worth checking (the monitor too)
I hate you…. How come I can’t find something like that
