Sign of the times, I suppose; they were much more helpful in
the days when I dealt with them, but that was dealing with
current (at the time) equipment, with possibility of some sales...

Good luck; sorry I tossed my Protec stuff, but it was mostly just
sales lit, not much tech info.

I actually sent a few emails to them already (6, I believe). They only ever
answered 1 of them (the 2nd) to tell me that they didn't make personal
computers. I replied and told them the machine was made by a Protec
Microsystems Inc. in the 80's and I sent them a picture of it. They have yet
to respond. Hmmm... Maybe when they talk about providing unlimited post sale
support, they don't mean items that are 20 years old! :)

The only remaining option I can see is to keep posting until someone
recognizes the name. Thanks for the advice anyway.
