Hi Bill,
According to the sources I've found, if a card is removed
from the machine, it won't boot except from a
reference disk,
afterwhich it can be reconfigured.

I've got two of these free for pickup here in
Austin - when I got them
, one worked fine but had a bad HD, and one wouldnt power up at all - I
went to try to swap the HDs (and took out the modem card while I was at
it); now neither unit will power up. Both have keyboards, etc.

That's a fun machine! I Belive the square
doohickey in the back is either
for an external monitor, it plugs into another converter thingy to get it to
standard VGA. It's got an ESDI hard drive, I belive, and has two MCA
expansion slots. You'll have to scrounge for a keyboard, I don't think it's
a standard PS/2 connector. The red gas-plasma display is supercool, it has
that wargames feel going on..
