Hello!
Is there s/o owning a 16kb variant of the 5150 or s/o who's seen it in
the wild? The first motherboard of the 5150 is often referred to as
the 16/64kb board. Was the 16kb variant of the 5150 without the fdd's
probably a configuration never released or was ist only very uncommon?
And if it was released: was it officially shiped to europe?
Please do not refer to wikipedia or collector sites only stating it
exists. I know that it is often mentioned, but I couldn't find any
pictures. I think this variant exists, but there are so many myth on
historic computer hardware out there.
thanks,
Martin
