Well I finally got a newer computer,used but much better then what I had,although I so hate Compaq computers cause there is no jumpers at all on the mobo to overclock the biatch. But I'm happy with it.

Talked the guy down from $180 to $125... that's Canadian money.

Those are excatly the ones we got for our com maintnace program at school Fattymcbluff

they got them for us from a room that had not been used since the school was built in 96 since then all the comps that broke were just piled up there

we found a 66mhz one and we actually got it to run linux

Found my spare Seagate that goes in my Hyundai 80286 comp. Made some pics but my posting site is down right now - maybe later.  This is a trip down memory lane.

SEAGATE  ST-251-1,  5 1/4' platters, 1/2 ht., 40MB. Price in 1988 was $ 479.00 - sure hurt to buy it then. Still works - little on the slow side tho. Little heavy too.

Here are the pics.  Hope they come out. This is my first attempt on this forum with this site.

No it's not on line.  Don't have a modem in it.  I have a few spare ones tho, I'll look them up and see if it will talk.  When I said it was slow - it's a 12MHz machine 80286,  640kB of ram and that ST-251 wasn't a barn burner.  I'll just have to see what I can do.  Let you know ,  down the road.  It's running DOS 3.11, had to put that in to be able to have a 1.44MB floppy drive - they were new back then. Good Microsoft or Logitek mouse would run you  $50 to $75 dollars.  Good Old Days -HUH !!!!!!
