I am familiar with them to some degree.  Used to service the
damn things, what are you looking for?

   Vortex on Nexuss Point had one - not sure if he still uses it much,
but he might have some stuff for it...

I have one of these things with some sort of memory expander.
It seems to have 640k but when I boot dos it only sees 128k.
I didn't know these things ran DOS anyway...I am really confused.
Can this thing run dos?  How much memory can it have?
Is there anywhere I can get software for it.
(It isn't really mine, I have beened asked to research this for a young person
who can't afford a new computer.)  Thanks for your help.

large pile of the things, with expantion stuff and carrying cases too.

The PCjr can run DOS, but to access more than 128K of RAM you must somehow
move the video RAM aside.  Most expansion products carried a device driver
to do this.  If you are missing this driver, I don't know how to access
the memory.

I have both a Centronics printer adapter and 128Kb memory adaptor (plus
required device driver.) I'd be willing to part with for cheap.
