DOS based or low-end Windows-based machines

[train_radio_guy]

Hey Guys,

I recently came acrossed a source of old PC's: 386's, 486, Pentium I's, etc... Mostly desktops & mini towers, although there were a few laptops.

Is there any market out there, for those folks in-need of a slower machine for programming older /\/\ radios? I remember some folks looking for &/or asking for older machines, and I'm sure I could pick them up for pocket change. If there is indeed enough demand, I think a few machines would find a new home, without much effort.

As always the harddrives would be re-formated with only an OS, and no software apps or programs would be included beyond the OS.

Just curious.

how low and slow can you go? (oooh, catchy) I need an EARLY 386 (although a 286 would work better) for a particualrly picky spectra set...

I'll have to due an inventory, of the small mountain of computers, to see which is the lowest speed processor. At work we've got a 386 - 33 MHz machine, which works perfect for programming our (railroad) spectras, but that's a totally different RSS, so there may not be any comparing the two packages.

At any rate, I'll try to go through them this week, & over the weekend, and get back with the results next week. I'm in the process of moving, so there are needless complications (as always).

Anybody still interested in DOS based or low-end Windows-based machines? I may have some laptops & desktops, that fill the need.
