I have joystick81> an ibm 386dx computer ps/2 would my computer have that Yes, your system is an MCA (Micro Channel) machine. It is likely a PS/2 Model 80 if it is a 'tower' machine, or a PS/2 Model 70 if it is a 'desktop' machine. It is possible to run Linux on some MCA machines, If you are interested I recommend that you start looking at http://www.linux.org and follow your nose.
