Dear Techies,

Recently I have been given an IBM PS2 model 30 (thats a 286 with 30M
HD and MicroChannel Bus). My queries are:
(1) Is it possible to upgrade this to have a 386 processor, and 
(2) Replace with a larger disk?
Any suggestions of who might be able to do the task. Or is this
really not economical as I suspect?

The second option I was thinking was to replace the motherboard
with a ISA motherboard. But then the HD will have to be replaced 
(probably not a great loss) but the floppy may be more of a problem?

Any futher suggestions? Pros and cons?

Thanks for listening and taking the time to answer.

Regards,
	Zahid
