[net.micro.pc] Homebrew PC Query

ELAMJD%VPIVAX3.BITNET%Berkeley@sri-unix.UUCP (08/09/84)

A friend of mine is getting ready to build a PC based on a Megaboard.  Does
anyone out there have any suggestions as to the best way to approach it?  He
is going to need chips and everything else, so if anyone has suggestions for
where he could obtain these at reasonable prices it would be appreciated.
He is looking at the turbo card from Orchid.  Does anyone know anything about
it?  Eagle has a machine that allows it's chip to change speeds so it can
be more compatible with the PC.  What to they do, and how can it be done?
He wants, like everyone else, to be able to have as much computer for the
money, and yet retain IBM compatibility as much as possible.  Any useful
information I receive will be sent back to the net.  Thanks in advance.
