What color are the labels on it?
How many 5 1/2 drives does it have?

Does it boot up and let you use dos?

Its the PLUS version, Gold Labels, 1 5.25in drive, 10mb HD, works like a charm, boots up no problem, even has some games ;)

[Chezman29]

Does it have the math co-processor?
You would have to open it to see. Don't know if you want to go that far with it though.
They are relics!

My 1st computer I built was an 8088, with a math co-processor.
First game was Wheel of Fortune. It took Vanna White about 1minute to make it across the screen to turn over the letters!!!

ORIGINAL Dos programming,

10
20
30
40

If, then, goto

Dos programming were the days!!!!!!

[amd_man2005]

Yuppers its got the 8087 coprocessor,

I'd clean it up, see if you can find the space bar, and put it on e-bay. See if you can get some cash for it, then put it into your new system you are trying to build.

Good luck,
Chez

[amd_man2005]

I dont really like Fleabay :rolleyes: ,Gonna see f i can find the space bar though

Sweet ! That thing's OLD !!!!
How many FPS will it do in Quake 3 ? 0.000000000000000000001 FPS ? :rofl:
Or would that be FPY ?

[amd_man2005]

Quake 3? It would spit that back at you so fast, LOL. Youd be lucky to get the first file of Quake3 on that HD, let alone its CGA video as well.

yuck.. i always knew compaq had dirty roots.

I found an old Sinclair ZX Spectrum up in my attic a few weeks ago. I love old PC's that still work. anyone here have experience with Amiga 2000's?
