    UMD is great. I took some computer science courses there years ago. I love that campus.

    Your sorting strategy sounds reasonable. I think I saw an IBM 5150 in the background in one of your photos. Those are very collectible.

    You have a sharp eye Indeed it's a 5150 and I think it even boots, or at least makes booting noises when turned on. To test this one, though, not only do I need a keyboard, I also need the right monitor cable since VGA does not fit. I guess I need to start buying vintage parts...
