You can get 1.0 and 1.5 systems on ebay, but there is some risk and the prices are amazingly high (80-95% of retail).

I think I can answer all of these. I'll make down what I'm not certain about, and my fellow list members can correct me as need be. 1. The only significant difference between the 1.0 and the 1.5 is the AC port, which the 1.0 has, but the 1.5 lacks. (...) (25 years ago, 18-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics)
