Dataman, you wanna set a price on that 80 gig hd? Is it ATA, EIDA, SATA? Jonathan, its an 80 MEG hard drive. Probably from one of IBM's first personal computers. Although as I remember the first release only had a 20 meg drive. Oh, you youngsters ... you have no idea where it all started. Glad you made it back! Fire up that monster machine and get to crunchin'.  |

I can't believe my old eyes missed the MEG there! I remember my first computer was an Apple Quadra 650 with a 33 MHZ (not GHZ) processor and 8 megs of RAM but even that old thing had 230 megs of hd space! What hunk of junk did you pull an 80 meg hd out of? Although now that I think about it, I remember Apple IIes with no hard drive space that ran off those ludicrous 5 1/2 literally floppy disks!

Fire up that monster machine and get to crunchin'. Well, not to bring up the past, but my very first PC was the IBM Portable Personal Computer 5155 Model 68 introduced in 1984, which was a bit of a rip-off of the computer that started Compaq. It was an 8086 rig built on an "XT" chassis packed into a "sewing machine" cabinet with about a 5" monitor and two 5 1/4" floppy drives. It weighed in at about 30 "portable" pounds. Mine is with one of my sons and it still works! He has IBM DOS 2.0 and Multimate word processor. I think he may also have a VT100 terminal emulation package, but I don't think the Hayes 1200 bps modem is around anymore. He will also have a bit of a problem printing because the old IBM Proprinter is also long gone. He can, however, enjoy passing his hours playing "Liesure Suit Larry" on an amber monitor. I think he still has a bootleg copy of several action games like Centipede. I think there are also a couple boxes of 5 1/4 floppies.  Not really a laptop, was it? Looking at the monitor, this one just got booted as the user just entered the date/time. |
