   I'm actually typing this from a PS/2 Model 30 286 :)  It's quickly becoming   
   one of my favourite machines - more bearable than an XT and less bulky than   
   an AT.  Plus VGA!   
      
   It doesn't have Microchannel; it was one of the few PS/2 machines to have   
   16-bit ISA slots onboard.  As much as I like Microchannel, it's a pain and   
   expensive to find suitable cards.   
      
   My machine has DOS 3.3, a network card and a (replica) Adlib card.  Makes a   
   very decent little DOS box.   
      
   I say dust it off and put it back in to use :)
