Sorry, but what is this drama about, again?
Dare I even ask?

Be that as it may and aside from the embarrassment and Mike's insults, no

I've been hanging on to for close to 40 years in case someone might
need/want something some day.
Have a '286 PC? I have a pick and place system that uses a massive
proprietary board that is essentially a 286 PC,
but with lots of EPROM and battery-backed static RAM.
I got rid of all my 286 gear almost 20 years ago, and now worry just a
little about spares.

I had the 36" fixed-head disk off a MEM-O-REE accounting machine, made
by
MDS. I have seen some of the consoles off them in surplus stores many
years ago. If that is what you have, it is a bunch of TTL wire-wrapped
into a small box with a keypad and displays. It was not just the keyboard,
it was the whole accounting machine (no CPU at all).
