Short review of $550 power cord plus a new SWTPC 6800

Heh, yeah, that reminds me of some fun stuff I did back in the day...a friend of mine's father was a real jerk toward me and thought he knew everything there is to know about technology because he took a correspondence course, so I decided to play a little trick on him. I took those jumpers and arranged them so that the display read "8" instead of "33" and "n0" instead of "66" (it was a 486DX). Then I used a program to merge two executables into one, so I merged a program that slowed the computer down to about 8mhz with his emm386 program. Man, I remember when he found out, he was so angry and freaked out when his computer ran that slow, and when he tried to hit the turbo switch it displayed "n0" Good times, good times *sigh* -----Original Message----- From: cctalk-bounces at classiccmp.org [mailto:cctalk-bounces at classiccmp.org] On Behalf Of John Foust Sent: Saturday, October 22, 2005 2:26 PM To: cctalk at classiccmp.org Subject: Re: Short review of $550 power cord plus a new SWTPC 6800 At 02:12 PM 10/22/2005, Fred Cisin wrote: The absence or presence of jumpers on the little daughterboard, encoded as digits? - John
