Hey me too on this one
--------------------------------------------------------------^^^^

Anyway I finally powered it up after jumpering the broken power toggle and it works
as far as the monitor powering and giving me video garbage. The hard drive is a
Seagate 5 mb and the floppy is a Tandon 720k belt drive. It appears to have a
printer port as well and only one open connection in the card cage. Although a
little dirty and dusty she's in beautiful shape needing a good repair and
replacement of the antiglare mesh.

If Marvin doesn't raise his ugly head (so to speak) I'll have to grab him by the
trackball and see what he has to say about it.

Add to my collection? I think not as the dining room is no longer a dining room,
it's a computer docking bay.

Thanks a bunch for the info...
