What hardware is avail for them?
Same as any PC.
Although it appears to be a proprietary bus technology, only for special
cards. Hrm...
I think there was one proprietary slot but I never saw anything made for
it. But I think they had regular ISA slots too. I don't remember if they
were 8 or 16 bit though. I KNOW they had some standard slots since several
of my friends put hard cards in them.

I'll see if he wants to turn loose of the stuff. I kind of hate to
split
it up though.
Understood. Copies of docs I'd pay for as well.
Right now it boots MSDOS 3.3 off a floppy,
rather
well, too.
As I said, they seem to be very IBM compatible. I don't remember seeing
anything that wouldn't run on them. I think my friends bought their's in
late 1984 or early 1985 and at that time a lot of the brand X machines were
not IBM compatible. I know, I had a Sanyo 555. What a PITA!
The one thing I haven't figured out yet is how to get into the BIOS
settings...is it a keystroke or will I need to run a setup program from a
disk?
NO I think these had a set up program. I'll check on that too.
