Kaypro 2000+

John, and anyone interested in this matter... Wow, once again, I hear that you have one too, I had one but in real bad shape. (Butchered by a IDIOT, plastic parts cut up, missing parts! Even all those in that replacement floppy drive capacitors leads are all idiocially twisted together. Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek! More info interested especially guts inside that kaypro 2000 series. Thanks. What I was able to determine: It's a XT clone version of a 8088, uses standard CMOS (!!) TTL and IC's, has on board DC-DC astec convertor, not sure which is for. It uses 3.5" 720k fd on right side. It uses MASSIVE 4.8v NiCd cylinder pack I think resting in back pan towards under the LCD display. The keyboard uses phone connector type. I did not recall that it had DIN 5 connector on that thing? How did the Floppy drive connects by what? That part is missing when I had it. When I had it, the display is so DIM, that you need a good eye to see the faint washed out characters, in short order, a small signal transistor cracked in two when I was at it! Then I gave up on it because the damage was VAST on it. Too much damage to list: missing parts, sawen off plastic parts to fit the replacement fd, much more. :( LCD does it has a backlight at all and very good contrast? Jason D.
