It's an IBM...TC S50 3.2G 512/80 WX. I haven't opened the box yet as I'm waiting for hubby to get home. There's a sticker that says "Intel Inside" but I don't know what kind of processor is really in there. Anyone know anything about this sort of thing?

I think we're gonna sell it to help fund our remodeling efforts at home.

HardDrive's a little small, but other then that it seems like a nice PC.

They are only going for about $550 on ebay though

Hmmmmmmm. That's good to know!

Is that the price for new or used on ebay?

Wow!!! Good to know!!!

Even so, if I get $550 out of it...that's new drywall for my living room!

Exactly!!! I actually might already have a potential buyer and it's a good friend so I'd want to make sure I was giving a fair deal anyway.

If I could get the retail price off ebay I wouldn't even consider selling it to an acquaintance...but if they aren't ebay-ing all that high...I'd rather cut out the middle man and sell it to a friend.

That should work, it'll save shipping too...
