It is a 486 dx2 at 66mhz, but at the time it had 24mb of ram on it. 4mb of it is soldered to the board right below the ram, and I recently upgraded to 32mb of ram.

I have an old IBM at home, not sure what type it is, but it's only got a 3.5 floppy and it says PS/1 on the front. Little 9in screen. :p

Similar to this, but I think the monitor is a little different...

I've seen ps2's before but not a ps1. This is a mid 90's compaq, the ps1's were made in the early 90's where the 386 was king. Its cool to have a piece of computing history. :p

Hehehe, according to Wikipedia, my PC (An IBM model 2011) had a 10kH processor, 1mb of ram and a 30mb harddrive. Also I believe it came with windows 1.0 on floppy disk. I'll see if I can take it apart later and get some pictures.

You mean mhz, khz is waaaay to slow for a 386. i had a 900khz motorola cpu in a tandy trs-80 color with 16k of ram. It was a beast for its time.

mhz, you are correct. I couldn't remember the right way of typing it.
