i saw a complete tandem computer system for sale for $8 today. it has the
usual desktop case, a monitor and two external 5.25 floppy drives with what
appears to be a seagate mfm drive with each floppy drive! the system is
complete, and everything is connected together, but was unable to test it. is
this thing worth getting, or is it just another pc compatible? i have plenty
of xt and 286 variants to keep me going for a long time. if its something
else, or has significant historical value, i'll go get it.
