     When Arkansas Children's Hospital in Little Rock was discarding all their   
   old computer hardware, a friend of my brother's (I didn't know him at the   
   time) got an 8088 XT, with 640K of RAM, a 3.5" and a 5.25" floppy drive,   
   a monochrome green monitor, a mouse, and a keyboard, with DOS 3.2 on it.   
   That became the birthplace of The Thunderbolt BBS in May, 1992.   
      
    JM>    That replaced my 286 I brought used, which replaced my Commie.   
      
     Was that a computer from Russia??
