Yeah, we have a number of machines from different manufacturers
dating back to (errrrr checks database....the oldest now is a 486DX-
50.
But it wasn't that long ago Vickers were giving all the old machines
to staff - I picked up 3 Original IBM XTs - the buggers have got
400W PSUs!! What's more, they seem to be electrically and
physically compatible with Skt 7 MBs.

Right, I'll make a determined effort to actually try a MB in it and
see what happens - I'll report back. (unless people aren't
interested..)

The nice thing about Windows is that it doesn't just crash.
It displays a dialogue box and lets you click OK first.
