Got the user_manual.html saved to ramdisk and read it with Mozilla,
from that very site one of the first listed links in fact!

It certainly looks fairly easily usable and configurable from what I
read. Unfortunately the on board battery on the 486 died
and I don't believe I'm up to snipping it out and tacking one
onto the provided terminals just now.

Perhaps in a few weeks I'll take the 340 Meg hard drive out of it and
put it in the Pentium and give it a shot.
There's already a DOS bootable Linux and two Linux partitions, 82 and 83
on that machine in addition to the 16 bit DOS - Windows.

Don't worry about it.
As I say I'm currently not up to additional projects nor even the
ones currently on the table.

The html users manual was an interesting read however.
Thanks.
