Intel 8086 at 1Mhz
640K Dram (the 15kchips) Maxed out
Hercules Monochrome Graphics Card
10Meg MFM Hard Drive that took up 2 5 1/4" slots
8087 Math Co-Processor
Daisy Wheel Printer
13" Monochrome Monitor
Big super heavy metal base AT/XT keyboard that had the fkeys along the left side and made a nice loud click when you hit them

should've kept that one.
2400 Baud modem

I still have my entire setup including software also, so I would like to have this info too!

Do they still make 5.25 floppies? We could always copy the info back if they do!

Well you could try and find an old 5.25" drive and copy them over that way. Thats the only way you could do it.

I have an old 5.25 drive in a spare PC, but I do not believe that it will read the OS that the Commodore wrote using their 5.25 drive.
