Hey, i'm pretty much new here.
So here's two of my vintage PC's i have:
Magnavox 386SX-16
I've had this one for a few years now. Found it in the trash one afternoon while going home. Plugged it in, and it started up right away without any trouble at all. Sorry for the lack of pics as i gotta dig it out from my storage locker which i will do one day to show the PC in full action. Also got the service manual with the schematics and all.
The specs as followed:
16MHz Intel i386 SX
1MB Onboard RAM + 4MB DRAM expansion (for a total of 5MB)
40MB Seagate HDD
Crystal Labs ISA Sound card (which i was testing on the video)
Lotus Magellan OEM Install + MS-DOS 5 + Windows 3.1
The other one:
Targa TS30AS
Got this recently from eBay, just needs an OS. Hadn't checked if the HDD is still good despite the fact it does show up on the BIOS. But if it doesn't, i do have a 256MB CF card and an adapter to use as an "SSD"
Specs:
66MHz Intel i486DX2
8MB RAM
450MB Seagate HDD
32KB Video chipset
I'm debating whether to install Windows 95, or just plain ol' MS-DOS 7 and Windows 3.1
I also own a few older PowerPC Macs but they really don't fall into this category.
