scott87star Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Wow, a built in 3.5" drive! I remember using Mac's for data acquisition back in the 80's in Silicon Valley and the 3.5" drives seemed like a godsend. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 I bet those things work better then new models. No black screen of death, no system crashing no updating BS. Of course they have limited memory, Limited speed, limited memory, and no modern video function. But hey I bet for basic functions word processing it must be great.

MikeMeyerhoff Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Pretty pricey bit of hardware in its day! A 16mb simm itself was like $2000 when that laptop came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 16mb simm itself was like $2000 when that laptop came out. that ain't no lie,, not some thing your average guy had, like these days ,, it's the only one of it's kind I have ever seen ,,some one may want it real bad some day , no use throwing it away heck it still works , that's amazeing , I still have the 10 floppy disk set of windows 95 , and I think ms works was like 5 or 6 more separate floppys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-O Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 This is too awesome. I've got an old laptop like that as well, Windows 3.1 installed on it. I remember my old man's first rig, x386 that ran 8MHz, 16 in TURBO! lol. Dual-booted between DOS 5.0 and Win3.1. I think the desk phone at work houses more processing power than that computer.
