I feel like such an idiot these days...when I was at

makers of the Model M and Model D]...(as an intern) in exchange for cleaning
out the attic of all the old Comdex stuff - old computers, software, posters
etc. One of the machines I ended up taking was a the 8088 version of the
Bondwell 2...it was a neat machine, even looked the same...15 years later I
have no idea what I did with it...probably threw it out when I got the
latest hot rod 286 or something.
Please kick me

That was the Bondwell Model 8. It came out the same time as the Model 2, had
512 KB of DRAM, had an 8088 that ran at 4.77 MHz, had the same 640x200 LCD
except with a backlight.
