March 8, 1983 IBM PC Hardware and Software Price List

edited April 2016 in Software
Someone posted this scan of a software and hardware price list of items one could purchase directly from IBM as of March 8, 1983.

https://goput.it/l8b.jpg
https://goput.it/al6.jpg

It lists some interesting titles I hadn't heard of before, and would be a good reference for any IBM PC collector.

Probably most interestingly is it lists "Typing Tutor (Cassette Version)". No copies have surfaced, but who knows if any actually sold in the first place?
