I owned a model 25 a number of years ago. This one actually had a 30MB
HDD that used a seperate controller. I also had an 8-slot ISA expansion
box from a comapny called Pacific Coast Horizons (PCH, I think that was
the name of the outfit). Also had an NEC CDR-72 single speed CD-ROM
(SCSI) and an MPU-401/MT-32 setup.
