Great. I could use the IDE drive. I have a couple of the 100 Meg disks too, but could possibly use a couple more. Puckdropper, did you get my PM? |

Just to clarify; the IBM I'm working with is an IBM 5150 PC model, not the 5160 XT. However, I know that the upgrade cards are all compatible between the two. I don't know if the 5150 has the same & ... |

OK. By the looks of it, the card will be pretty much useless for me. So, I'm back to my original plan. I do have several ISA cards, so I'll bundle them up and sell them all off. If anyone is inter ... |

Where can I find this? It looks promising. Also, while looking at these files, it is apparent that the card won't be compatible with my 5150 PC as it only has 640K of RAM total. I can't add any mor ... |

Funny, I looked there too. I know Google does this stupid thing where people get different results from different locations, or even log on accounts. That is really a stupid idea.

I understand that the Tandy T1000 RL has a U4, Intel 8087 co processor installed as a standard option. This is the very same chip used for the IBM 5150 PC. Is the chip removable from the Tandy co ... |

I've never heard of them doing that either. But if it's true, Wow!
I'm still looking for any kind of productivity software for my 5150. It doesn't have to be from MS, or any of the major progra ... |
