I just read in vol 89 issue 135 that someone was asking Morrow questions. My question is that I have a Morrow d120 (s100 bus) machine that I bought new and was never satisfied. Problem is, what do I do with it? I gave away the power supply, but still have disk drives, 64k memory, disk controllers ,although the floppy controller has roms for Hard sectored diskettes. Serial I/O was built into the motherboard. Do I now have a poor boat anchor, or is there some cheap way to get it running again, or is the best way to tear it apart and build my own computer system? The disk controllers use Z80's to run them, and the main processor is a Z80. I also have a 6502 chip floating around somewhere. I keep wondering what kind of weird machine I could build with all that. I would love to hear some suggestions. Luther Atkinson@vcuvax.bitnet Atkinson@ruby.vcu.edu

I would love to hear some suggestions. hey, i got a decision 1 also. the killer is that i have it running micronix, a version 6 clone. horrible as it may seem, it even has sortof berknet networking as well. if you want to get rid of it, i am always looking for spare parts. curt mayer (415)923-9104 hm (415)966-1024 curt@omni.com, or apple!omni!curt
