My dad got my older PII computer and he replaced the 286 he was using to keep
notes and things in his office with the computer that was replaced by the
older PII. That's the way things go around my house, I get the new fast
computer and the older computer gets pushed down the line, handmedowns sort
of:-). Anyway he also allowed me to have his old 286. Hmm guess I'll use it
to tinker around on. Perhaps install an old version of DOS or something. One
nice thing is that it has a 5 1/4 " drive and we have a lot of 5 1/4" disks
and I don't know what's on any of them, perhaps I'll find some OLD OLD
programs I thought I lost along time ago, or used to play with:-)

More memory is one of the things I'm saving for, another 64MB, I'm also
saving for a CD-R drive.
