Any PC (IBM) or MS-DOS as far as I know, although I'd try MS-DOS 3.2 or 3.3.... ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Subject: DOS disks? Author: classiccmp(a)u.washington.edu at internet Date: 10/27/98 1:51 PM Weeeeeeeell, I landed a Data General One laptop. Normally I eschew MS-DOS based machines, simply because I'm a racist pig etc., but this one has an interesting notebook mode and a built-in terminal program at 1200bps. Except that the screen is harder to read than James Joyce, it seems like a winner and it works great. Question. Anyone know what version of DOS this uses? Does someone have any boot disks out there, or at least have the system files available for download? The drives are 3.5" DD, right?
