An Ancient Relic

File this one in the ‘stupid hobby’ section. Today I took possession of one of these:
Why? I don’t know. It was bouncing around here in someone’s office and had about ten years of dust on it. I haven’t plugged it in yet, but I’ll be checking into all of that this weekend. Check out those awesome specs:
| Announced: | February 1986 |
| Price: | US$3499 – $4999 |
| Weight: | 26 pounds |
| CPU: | Intel 80286 @ 6 or 8MHz |
| RAM: | 256K – 640K |
| Storage: | One 360K 5.25-inch disk drive |
| 10Meg or 20Meg hard drive |
Oh yeah, the pow-ah!

I just threw away some “brand-new” blank 5.25″ floppies like last week. I wish I had known… you might want them.
Maybe they’re still in the bucket. I’ll see if I can find them.
