Now that I have a POST card my next most desired piece of equipment for over 2 decades was an EPROM burner. Could never afford one. I even need one to be able to burn some chips for a couple of Grid 1520 LTs. Grid in it's wisdom only allowed 3 models of small capacity Conner HDs, and of course they have usually failed in most Grids over the years, as mine has. One of the guys on the Yahoo Grid forum came up with a BIOS code to overcome the problem, but of course that demands an EPROM burner. The Grids also had 2 vacant(in mine) sockets in which you could put a boot OS or sequence which preceded the OS boot-search. Many put the Grid-Dos or MSDOS there, or of course anything else you wanted.
The 1520 was an AT, but had 8 SIPP sockets, allowing 8megs of memory. Up until my HDs failed, I could run Win 3 on them. Another item on a much too overlong "to-do" list. :^(
