I personally use them for doorstops, table legs, and paperweights. The parts
are just too hard to find unless you order them from IBM, and who wants to
pay $500 for a SVGA video card? Although if you want to do something useful
(computerwise) with them, I'm sure if there's anyone on here who works
Border's/WaldenBooks store support, they'd know more than they want to about
the things. You cou also look on the 'net for the "PS/2 FAQ" which covers
almost everything about PS/2's and other MCA systems. Heck I might even be
able to offer some info for you, so just ask away!
(I'm not making the above $500 video card price up. That is IBM's *current*
price for such a card. I was looking for one recently for a customer who had
brought a PS/2 Model 80 into my shop with a video problem.)
