My parents got rid of mine without asking when I went to college in the 2000s :(

I don't remember what happened to ours. It got replaced by a 486/66 Windows 3.1 PC in 1994.

I just picked one up for $20. Missing the cable for the double disk drive though and it had a bad psu and I have no disks. Basically it's a money pit. But fun to mess with anyway.

I'd love to replace it but I'm not sure I could deal with CRT whine anymore.

The video out is just an rca cable you can plug it into a more modern tv in the yellow video port. I'm using an lcd tv I have for older stuff.

Oh, shiny. That could do.
