I just realised that I forgot the GRiD 1530. I'd love to get one of the
pen GRiDs, though -- this thing is too bulky to be useful to me.

I hate to brag, but my collection includes the ghost of Charles Babbage
who roams around my house at night. I think perhaps he's attached to the
original portrait of himself painted by Lady Ada Lovelace hanging in my
living room. How he managed to follow it all the way across the Atlantic
is anyone's guess.

Since upgrading from System 4, attempting to install the RAM disk driver
results in a crash during boot-up.

Until I get a house (or a more permanent base of operation) I'm trying to
keep my collection small (and failing, however. I can't really turn down
offers of free computers, can I?). My main criteria is working and either
has TCP/IP or was a machine I once programmed on.
I'm not sure what the exact name of the Compaq III is. It's a 386, iirc,
w/ 640kb, one 5.25 floppy and an internal hard drive. Makes a nice (if
noisy) terminal that can be easily moved around, or folded up and out of
the way. http://pied.nu/fotos-8/compaq-III-1.jpg
