You have a boot anchor there. Use it for Dos 2.0 to run Lotus on.
In the states, for $200 you can get 1.5GZ system + 128M ram, 40g drive,
10/100 NIC, modem, USB . Thin Linux, Open Office.
www.outpost.com ( Frys Electronics ). Ebay ? Sucks ... check your
local newpaper. I have no idea why people but **junk** and pay
shipping to Ebay . Lazy I guess.
