Now that I got the 6 questions out of the way I can tell you a little more about myself. I have about 9 years of actual "work" experiance on computers. If you decide to include the basic programing that I did with my Vic 20 or Commie 64 I guess it would be like 22 years. :)
Picked up this particular model since I wanted to use it mostly for a glorrified Book reader with some computer stuff to go with it Playing simple games and such. It was mostly bought for the chance to use it for E-book reading. The idea was good, but implementing it was a bit harder since there isn't all that much info about this particular pentop. The units I got from E-bay all work, but I only have parts to make one work completly. The only downside is the size of the PCMCIA 2 hard drive. It's just under 200 MB of space and the OS, along with word takes up almost all but 10 megs of space. So I bought a bigger one on E-bay but I hadn't been able to find the software to install on it. I doubt any of the other OS's would work on this old machine.
So here I stand. I hope to be able to pick as many brains as I can to get the answers I need. I am not afraid to do anything with this thing. I have all the components I need to load it, just need the software ideas. :) Any help of course would be apreciated.
