8088 here. Original IBM PC, and only got that good of a price due to a student discount plan and aftermarket components (drives, RAM, multifunction board).

Financed it like a car with my credit union, IIRC 36 months. Might have been 30. Was a good decision.

Leading Edge Model M with the speedy 7 MHz 8088. 50% faster CPU than the original IBM PC.
