Well here I am responding to my own post. I received alot of responses
via email and figured I'd respond to all of them here.
It appears that anything less than a 386-16 with 4MB ram is out of the
question! Pretty much blows what I wanted to do -- 286-12 w/ 2MB!! See,
I told ya I wanted to go cheap!
So it looks like I'll need to buy something rather than use what's laying
around :)
Thanks to all!
Vince.
