I have a Compaq Deskpro 386 that I need to sell. This is the first model, running at 16 MHz with a 287 (yes, that is 80287) coprocessor socket since the 387 was not out yet. It was the victim of a battery explosion while in storage and has been restored to full working condition. It has 1.2M and 360K floppy drives and 121 MB Conner hard drive set up with Ontrack 5.22 since it is not supported by the BIOS, with DOS 3.31 installed. It has 2 MB of RAM on the expansion board and original Compaq VGA and drive controller cards. The paint on the case has some scuffs and chips on the edges, but it is clean on the inside and out. This is just the main system unit, no keyboard or display. I will include copies of the DOS 3.31, Compaq Diagnostics adn Ontrack disks that I used to get it working. I will also include the November 1986 issue of Personal Computing magazine with a cover article featuring the Deskpro 386.
I haven't seen these sell on ebay for a long time, and the only Deskpro 386 is a later model that someone is trying to sell for $2000 (HAHA!). I'm thinking $250 plus shipping, since it is just the system unit. If you are interested and want to make an offer I will consider it. The package will be 24" x 20" x 12" and 40 lbs. This thing is heavy. PM me if you are interested.
