[linrad] Is anyone else using an old PC?

["John Harrison, NI1B" <nei.mv.com; jmh6@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

   As far as I know I am the ONLY person using an original IBM PC
- 4.77mhz 8088 and dual floppy disks for real work?

   How old is your oldest PC doing real work?

   FWIW this old PC has a 4 port serial card and a 10base2 network card,
runs DOS and is used as part of a electronic product tester for
neinnovations.com products. It is networked to a Linux box via NFS.

   regards to all,
   john, ni1b
