Heh.  Bet I'm farther behind it than you are.  This box is a 486, my 'main' box
downstairs is a Pentium 100 (IBM PC350).  I just took an old Gateway box (literally,
just the case) and added a PS and a motherboard Dave Calafrancesco sent me - it has a
200Mhz AMD 686 processor, I'll finish resurrecting it sometime this week -
I have boxes
of IDE HDs, floppies and CD (read) drives - and all sorts of OS's (except
M$ types) I can
put on it.

One thing I don't have around here is a HD for an IBM PS/1.  The thing doesn't use a
standard HD but has a special proprietary setup.  Somebody gave me a PS/1 complete
except for the HD and I'd like to get that up and running too.
