The IBM PS/2 model 70 again! -E61 - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

7 Jan 1998

Well, I've found a source of PS/2 parts/systems, but it'll cost.  It's a
company.  They seem to have tons of the stuff.  Their URL is
http://www.kahlon.com .  The problem is that they list(ed) a Model 55SX as
$249, but that did include a monitor.  Well, you could probably say that you
collect classics and that that price is way out of whack, but that might not
work....

Hi!

...
  I have this model in my collection. i managed to get
it for $25 but have not
...
  been able to test it since mine came with a radius two
page display card which
...
  is useless without the monitor. i finally did get a
1bit video card for it,
...
  but now need to find a mono display for it which i
still havent found! the cx
...
  is a 68030 running at 16mhz. a better deal would be
the IIci model which is
...
  25mhz and built in video which can be used with a vga
monitor if you use a
 special dongle. I noticed after I surfed the net, and I do remember it had no
video
card.  BUMMER!  If it was IIci, I would grab it.

...
  RE: ps2 models; I have 3 of them: two 8530 and a 9577.
the model 77 i bought
...
  from work when they upgraded to pc300 desktops. two
scsi adaptors, 16 meg, 200
...
  400meg scsi drives running hpfs and os2 3.0. its an
industrial strength
 machine, and will probably outlive any other computer i own. 
David,  how cheap did you gotten some of these parts through this
mail list?  Model 77?  I do not know this specs,  kindly tell me what
about this?  :)

My book does not list this Model 77.
