Summary
This was my second PC, following the IBM PC 5150. I am currently building a detailed replica.
After I bought Poseidon (Original), I used this briefly as a Linux machine. However, my mother eventually forced me to get rid of this system. It was sold to James Lines, who eventually gave it to his sister, Geri Dawn Curtis.
