Let me start off by saying: I know nothing about vintage computers. Nothing.
Recently while cleaning out a storage room, I found a Toshiba T5200/100 in an old leather bag. I plugged it in and I booted it up and was forced to set the date and time and all that jazz. The next part is what confused me: It told me insert the system disk. Now, I have no clue where this computer came from or what a system disk is, so I've got a few questions I really hope you lot can answer:
1) Is this computer valuable at all? Should I keep it around, sell it, or is it just junk to throw away?
2) What is a system disk and how can I get one?
I hope you guys can give me some good news because I really wanna boot this up properly and be able to tinker about with it.
Thanks!
