[TriLUG] OT: Microchannel PC's Up For Grabs

[Mark Turner]

Want to try Linux on Microchannel hardware? A friend has two machines 
which need a good home. If you're interested, please contact Michael 
Baker directly at mbcc2 at msn dot com.

His note is below:
=====================================================

Basically, I have:
     1.)  An IBM 8560 (ESDI) with two hard drives:  50mb & 70mb.  It 
also comes with a 5.25 External Floppy Drive.  I have old MSDOS,  PCDOS, 
and Windows 3.1 Diskettes to provide for an Operating System.

     2.)  An IBM 8595 (SCSI) with six 1gb +/- hard drives, four 
installed and two back-ups.  The system also has a sound card with 
speakers, and a CDROM.  The system has been set up with dual boot, i.e, 
Windows 95 & OS/2 WARP ver 4.  I have the software and respective 
licenses to support both Operating Systems.

Both of these systems are complete with keyboard, mouse, display and all 
related cables.  Essentially, both systems are operational.  I've had a 
great time building these units and don't feel they should be simply 
trashed  because they're no longer contemporary.
