Whheee! Saved from a dumpster...

Saved a Compaq Portable(w/5.25" FD and unknown 5.25" FH HD) from a dumpster... AFTER a 10 foot flight into it! Plugged it in and it still works... Needs some repairs, I can hear stuff rattling around inside, but it does work... Booted from the hard drive with Compaq DOS 3.31. Also got a MasterSport 386SL(386SX-20, 4MB RAM, 63MB HD) and a 486 motherboard(gonna set it up with Linux or something). Also getting a 1970 VW Bug for my birthday next week... I suppose this makes it a good day despite the belt clip on my radio breaking this morning(now I get to make a nice metal one to replace the broken plastic one). -------------------------------------------------------------- | http://members.tripod.com/~jrollins/index.html - Computers | | http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Lair/1681/ - Star Trek | | Orham(a)qth.net list admin KD7BCY | --------------------------------------------------------------
