The IBM PS/2 model 70 again! -E61

Well, I've found a source of PS/2 parts/systems, but it'll cost. It's a
company. They seem to have tons of the stuff. Their URL is
http://www.kahlon.com . The problem is that they list(ed) a Model 55SX as
$249, but that did include a monitor. Well, you could probably say that you
collect classics and that that price is way out of whack, but that might not
work....

I noticed after I surfed the net, and I do remember it had no video
card. BUMMER! If it was IIci, I would grab it.
