Hello, I am curious about the plastics used in the IBM PC family. I have a few Apple machines that are badly yellow, but all my IBM machines maintain their original white color. In fact, I have never seen an IBM PC with yellow plastics on eBay or in collector’s photos.
I read somewhere that IBM used heavy gauge plastic, but I couldn’t find any information on the matter.
The reason I want to know is I have a few PCs on display in my living room, but I am worried that may fade to yellowish beige with all the sunlight in that room.
