Its a 386sx 20 Mhz machine. I had a problem with the PS/2 style mouse not working, but a serial mouse fixed that. It ran _slow_ so I did the logical thing, upgrading to a 486DX/2. :-) I ran it that way for a few weeks and finally went back to windows for one reason or another. > Maybe there is a patch or something. Thanks in advance. There's lots of patches for OS2. None of them were required for ZDS machines that I know of. > Ravi -- ___ ___ Jeff Easton easton@zds-oem.zds.com (__ (__ Zenith Data Systems j.easton@mi04.zds.com ___) ___) Saint Joseph, Mich. easton@andrews.edu Monte Carlo Z-LS/20 - Choice of a quiet generation
