      Hello, All.              This is something you all might like. I am in the process of emptying out a       storage room that I've had for years and moving into another storage room       that's half the size of the old one. During this, I found a SuperMicro P6SBA       motherboard that was given to me a few years ago in perfect condition. I put       a spare Celeron/400 (Slot A case IIRC) in it, booted it up, and it works. I       tried putting OS/2 on the system and it flies, so I put the motherboard in a       brand-new case I've been carrying around in the original cardboard box for a       few years.              It's actually pretty fast and seems to be perfect for the BBS. Since my BBS       doesn't really get a ton of usage, it was a waste to use a multi-gigahertz       system for it.              I've got some more work to do on it, such as put in a NIC and configure OS/2       the way I want it for the BBS, but hopefully within a week or two I'll have my       old new system up and running.              I just couldn't bring myself to toss the motherboard. :)              Later,       Sean              ... Bigamy: one wife too many. Monogamy: same idea.       --- GoldED/2 3.0.1        * Origin: Outpost BBS * Johnson City, TN * bbs.outpostbbs.net (1:18/200)    |
