Condition Report:

• Tested & Working: The computer powers up immediately. The internal fan runs smoothly. The monitor turns on with crisp, beautiful color rendering.
• Current Status: The system boots straight to the official blue IBM Personal System/2 Reference Diskette screen shown in the photos. Because it has been safely stored for years, the internal CMOS battery has drained (very common for this era). The system requires the configuration utility to clear the error. Fortunately, the original physical Reference Diskette is included in this lot, allowing the buyer to easily configure the system.
• Cosmetic Condition: Excellent retro condition. No cracks or major scuffs. The keyboard is remarkably preserved under plastic. The plastics on the machine and monitor are solid, structurally sound, and clean.
