How to make 286s useful? I know it's been brought

on 286s, especially if they do VGA. *ponder* Gee, I know a lot of people who
need a computer for web foo. And I know a place that sells old PS/2 hardware.
(or it did last time I was there.) I'm thinking Christmas gifts...
I'm thinking that I have a ton of PS/2 30-286 units and 55SX units without
keyboards and monitors that would suit your list quite well.
By the way, I sold 3 model 50Z's on ePay last week for $9.95 each plus shipping
(main unit only) without a problem and two of those were to the same bidder. Maybe
the rebirth of usefulness of these castoffs is around the corner?
