A friend has asked for a reference on the Black Ship brand '486 computer. If you can comment, based on experience with Black Ship, favorable, unfavorable, or neutral as compared with other companies, please send me a note. My friend is considering a Black Ship 486 or a CLUB AT 486. Stuart

We got a 286/16 for the lab. As far as pricing and prompt delivery is concerned they were very good. Then 2 faculty members purchased more systems and they've been happy ever since. But remember, you' ve got to ask for the dos manuals because they have dos installed on the H.D. and will "forget" all about them... The components in the system were Teac floppies (5 1/4 && 3 1/2), Seagate 251-1 Keytronics kbrd, Samsung monitor, all decent. As far as 486 systems from them are concerned, I have no experience. Hope this helps, Vassilios E. Axaris -------------------- "Rats! Who put that branch instruction in the pipe?"
