Talk Wish Me Luck

I work at the Simulator Systems Division of FlightSafety Intl. and we go through a lot of PCs. Got an email today that said they were going to have a drawing to give away a bunch of obsolete boxes. (obsolete to them) They range from P2 333s down to 486s.

I threw my name in the hat. A friend said if he won and I pulled the floppy and put it in his home box, I could have the rest of it. So I guess I have two chances.

Our first computer, an AST 386, 16 MHz, was a liquidation special. I remember thinking, was the heck am I ever going to do with this HUGE 40 MB hard drive?

Thanks,

Mick, I don't know yet when the drawing will be. Probably next week. They wanted to see how much interest there was first. And I'm sure there will be enough people interested.
