My first PC was a Philips P3200,
 very heavy, equiped with a 286 processor working at 6MHz (!), a Miniscribe
20MB HDD (5,25 FH) and a big power supply (720W). the 5V cable was screwed
with a bolt on the mainboard :)
It came with a Princeton - Monitor and an AST-3G EGA card .
Unfortunately, I throw it away long time ago :( (but I built out most of the
parts).
