I am very unfamiliar with the PS/2 product line. Could someone tell me what assumptions can be made about various PS/2 systems, such as system board, disk type, etc. This case specifically refers to a Model 30, but I don't know any more specifics about it. What I need to know is: 1. Is the system board a standard XT form factor, and can I replace it with any clone board the same size? 2. Does it have the PS/2 mini-din style keyboard connector, mouse port on the motherboard, serial/parallel on the mb, VGA or IDE host built in, etc. 3. If I replaced the motherboard with a clone, would I have to add these items (I/O board, VGA board, disk controller) 4. What size disk bays does it have (just 3-1/2"? how many?) In other words, would someone be better off starting over with a new box if they want to upgrade and can't afford "Big Blue"??
