RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] recycling computers

Hmm, will look, but my memory is that I tried to stay away from 286's during
the "collection" phase. C

Hey, if you have a 286, I'd be real interested in the motherboard only.
I have a pick and place machine
that has a 286 in it (has a little cast aluminum heat sink on the CPU)
and I had already dumped all that
ancient junk when I got this machine. It still works fine, but you
never know when something might go
out on it. it is not upgradeable, it is a 286, but not a PC. It has a
board about 18" square with big
rows of EPROMS and battery-backed SRAMS. The architecture is not that
far from a PC, but there's
no OS, no ISA slots, etc.
