It is old enough some collector types might want it. I see them on e-bay for up to 299.95. Maybe you could trade the computer for the data. Maybe a small independent shop. This is pre IDE so the the external drive stuff won’t work. Transfer with a serial cable to a newer computer is a option. But this takes somebody who knows DOS well. There are ways to get it done cheaply.

Fastwire. IIRC, that was a free program for serial cable file transfers. I probably have a copy of it on my old archives.

Google has several programs listed under: https://www.google.com/#q=freeware+file+transfer+pc+to+pc
