Ooh, what a little sweetheart you've got there Tezza. I've always wanted a decent XT, but they're hardly a commodity item these days. Nice work!
Just the local Commodore hobo and middle-aged PC hoarder.
eisa on Trademe. A lasting reminder of a Compaq fetish when I was younger.

Yes, I'm lucky this fell into my lap and the fix was relatively easy.
I just need to find a genuine IBM green screen for it, for that true XT/PC experience!
