That's interesting. It makes sense considering where I got it as
well...lots of engineers and R&D work. Looks like he board had a bit more
memory on it than the average PC of the time.
Mine seems to have a bad Simm, and would fail
periodically. I haven't used
it in years.
Would you still have the disks for it? Do you know if there was any type
of diagnostic on the disk to determine if this board is functional or not?
Thanks.
