Ok ! 486DX-33 pure ISA, 420 IDE mode 2 (Full :-)
Major parts of the machine are 5+ years old, CD-ROM is
Dual spin and is used heavily, 16MB RAM, 8 users
New = P200, 2940, 6.4GB 5400 RPM, 24*Spin CD, 96 MB RAM
Customer is NOT interested in reusing _ANY_ part of the old machine except
for the software. Aaaand i have _never_ tried
to _MOVE_ a novell opsys before !
Thanx for the reply !
regards
