when you are trying to revive an IBM 5150, that :
- you do not have a single AT powersupply in the house, just 20 ATX PS
Actually, I thought there was a minor difference between the PC and AT
PSUs...
- do not have a single PC compatible keyboard, but 10
AT & 10 PS2 keyboards
I have the oposite problem. My IBM Type M is playing up (needs taking
apart and the heat-stakes replaced by screws...) and I don't have another
AT or PS/2 keyboard in the house. Got a few XT ones, plenty of HP-HIL
ones, LK201s, etc...
- at least 50% of your MFM drives have passed away in
their sleep.
- you don't remember which is the last DOS version that runs on a standard 5150
at least I know where my 5150 techref is...
