My old 386/sx16 scratchbox with its proud 6 MB of RAM has been upgraded recently to a (donated) 386/dx40, and i had to add another couple of Meg of RAM then... Of course, i've kept the old MDA, plus the (For Tests Only) QIC-40 drive, plus the Wangtek 5150EQ QIC-24 drive, plus the old AHA-1540*A*. ;-) Ah, forgot, there's a fine WD8003 ethernet card in it... -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
