The IBM PS/ValuePoint (or just ValuePoint) personal computer was IBM‘s answer to the PC clone market, where the IBM PS/2 could not compete due to price and proprietary interfaces. Announced in October 1992 and withdrawn in July 1995, it was replaced by the IBM PC Series 300.

This computer was donated on 05-Feb-2018. The machine has a damaged HDD and no CD-ROM. Its a very nice little machine as it has no proprietary interfaces so I intend to put a Creative SoundBlaster and a SCSI IDE controller to add an external HDD. I`m gonna make this a MS-DOS Gaming Station that will give hands on access to MS-DOS games for the museum visitors.
