Lines: 33 [munch, munch ... ptew! Yuck, gag, blah! This line tastes bad!] Does anyone have any experience with a product, from a company called "PC's Limited" in Austin Texas, called "the PC's Limited AT" ? The specs are o 80286 running @ 6Mhz ( anyone speeded this up? ) o 1 Meg of Ram on the mother board o 1 parallel, 2 serial ports also on the mother board ( the serial ports are either RS232 or RS422 ) o 8 expansion slots o 192 Watt power supply o hard disk/floppy controller o 1.2 Mbyte floppy o AT style keyboard (gak) o Claims 100% compatibility with MS-DOS, all versions up to 3.1 work o $1995 price tag This looks like an AT-68 (the unenhanced version) with 1024K instead of 256K, an extra serial, a parallel, and no monitor. My guess is that a monitor and monitor card can be had for less than $250, a 20 Mbyte disk for ~$500, giving a full blown AT for around $2750. Pretty nice. The question is: does it work? Anyone out there have one or know of one?
