The infamous Japanese PCjr? The JX was the last straw
for the jr community.
When we heard about it we though IBM was fixing to revive the jr--little
did we know. Is there any chance you could post a couple snapshots of the
JX somewhere? I'd love to have a look at one so I can cry in my beer.
I opened one of them up to check her out, and have a shot of the system
with the cover off. As soonas I get the film proceesed I'll put them up.
An ugly beast though - I like them, but they are an ugly dark gray.
IIRC, the JX could boot PC-DOS 2.10. If it's
inwards are anything like the
PCjr, it's a 128K box, so unless it has been expanded, you're probably
stuck with DOS 2.10 or 3.x.
It seems they were 512k as standard, but there was no seperate video ram
so 64k of that was taken.
thanks heaps,
Adam.
