WOW! Great Timing on the infor for the Amstrad Website..
I can't believe you guys are on the subject of Amstrad PC6400..
I just purchased one at the local Thrift store yesterday for $4.04
and when I got to the checkout line the lady told me it was half price
day so for only $2.02 I got this really cool Portable XT dual
720KB floppies, and a nice LCD screen..
Very impressive machine for 1987..
And it appears to run on standard D batteries for portable use..
Looking forward to learning all about it..
Phil...

Hi. Anyone knows how to enter the BIOS setup in such a PC?
Does it even have a BIOS setup utility?
Thanks,
