Hello ClassicCmp friends,

Right now as I type this an interview is in progress on the
Coast to Coast AM late night radio talk show about a supposed
time traveler who went back from 2036 to 1975 to obtain a
classic computer, specifically IBM 5100. Needless to say,
this story got me highly intrigued.

Since I don't really know anything about the machine in question,
I thought I would ask the collective list wisdom. There must have
been something really special about IBM 5100 for them to go back
for it from 2036. Does anyone know anything about that machine?

MS
