I'm looking for info on one of these. I's
some kind of XT
clone, with an
eight-bit passive backplane and an upgraded V20 on a CPU
card. It runs
MSDOS, and
currently boots into dosshell. A little googling turns up
numerous resumes
containing Kaypro PC, and a number of old classiccmp posts
regarding them,
but no real info. kaypro.com seems to be down ATM. I'd
especially like to
know what the switch and pushbutton on the back of the CPU
card do. IIRC
it's not a reset button, but I might be mis-remembering.
Well, I have one of these. It was given to me a week ago. I have both the computer
itself, and a kaypro monitor (in original box ;). No documentation or anything.
Let me know if you find out anything interesting. I haven't tried powering it on
yet.
