I saw a carbine like that in the IBM museum in Endicott. Gotta get back
there before I retire back to Texas in a year of so. I'm only about 35
miles up the road, now.
I remember that when I started school in a one room country school house
in 1949 that there was a clock on the wall that said, on the front face,
"IBM". If I ever get back to Beecher, IL, maybe I'll drive out there in
the off chance that the building is still there and not being used. If
so, I might be tempted to break in and steal the clock if it's still
there.
I also have a 1986 PC Jr. and a 1985 IBM luggable in my attic in Plano,
TX. I pulled the luggable out a year or two ago with the big box of
diskette's and it still boots up from an old DOS diskette that had been
in the attic of a Texas house for 4 summers or so. The bearings on the
hard drive that I had put in had dried up.
