I currently have a Zenith Z150 (very old machine) and would like to know if anyone with a simuliar machine has upgraded to a 386 based cpu. What boards are available or do you recommend? What is the approx. cost? What other types of problems will I run into? If I want to add a higher density drive also, what is would be the cost (New controller card, right?)? It is probably cheaper to buy a new machine, but I hate throwing aware things. Responses can be posted or sent to me directly.
