Suggestions on portable PC with ISA
Posted: Tue Nov 27, 2012 3:58 pm
Hey all,
I'm looking for some kind of portable PC DOS system that has a couple of (well, at least one) 16-bit ISA slots. I'd like an integrated display and a hard drive. An old-style laptop (some of them essentially had a port replicator/docking bay functionality built in) or luggable/industrial PC would be great.
Doesn't need to be anything modern, a 486/100~ish or Pentium whatever would work just fine although I *maybe* could get by on something slower. VGA is essential, battery is unnecessary. It would be a real bonus if the whole thing ran from a single power cord.
Any suggestions on what to look out for or where I could get something like that? I'm in Auckland BTW.
Also, if any of you have a Gravis Ultrasound PnP or other AMD Interwave-based soundcard, or SB AWE64 lying around I could use to fill one of ^^ said ISA slots, contact me!
Thanks!
