I just read in vol 89 issue 135 that someone was asking Morrow questions.
My question is that I have a Morrow d120 (s100 bus) machine that I 
bought new and was never satisfied. Problem is, what do I do with it?
I gave away the power supply, but still have disk drives, 64k memory,
disk controllers ,although the floppy controller has roms for Hard sectored
diskettes. Serial I/O was built into the motherboard.  

Do I now have a poor boat anchor, or is there some cheap way to get it 
running again, or is the best way to tear it apart and build my own
computer system?  The disk controllers use Z80's to run them, and the
main processor is a Z80. I also have a 6502 chip floating around
somewhere.  I keep wondering what kind of weird machine I could build with
all that.

I would love to hear some suggestions.
