How much would you want for the parts? I'm trying to get this computer
running for a school project (the computer belongs to my school)

I was just wondering --- Could I have an APC IV? Three of the teachers that
have seen it have either called it an APC IV, or "The pain in the neck".
Some of the descriptions that I've seen don't sound like the computer I
have. Although it does say "APCIII" on the front panel.
