very good things about the Zeos Machines. $2500 for a one megabyte monochrome system with an 80 MB SCSI drive seems almost too good to be true - is it? Also, I have noticed several network posts regarding the dificulty of running Windows/386 on some clones. Is the Zeos one of these machines? I could probably get by with DesQview 386, but I want to keep my options open. Any advice would be apreciated. Peter A. Dinda

I got their 20 MHz 386 Desktop system with CDC 165M ESDI hard disk drive and put Video 7's VRAM VGA and it is a good thing to have around ... And a friend of mine got their 386SX w/65M Seagate drive- no problems of any kind (except 386SX doesn't like VRAM VGA- must be a problem with BIOS). Fast and 'student friendly' priced indeed. > > Also, I have noticed several network posts regarding the > dificulty of running Windows/386 on some clones. Is the > Zeos one of these machines?
