    Wanted - AT case for a 286

    Anybody have an AT case & power supply they could sell me? Or I suppose even better would be if you're willing to sell me a fast (>16mhz 0ws) 286 system? I'm working on building a Gameboy emulator and I'm pulling out all of the tricks to try and get it run on as slow of a PC as I can. I suspect...

    The "I'm New Here" Thread

    Perhaps we might want a thread for folks to say hi and introduce themselves. I'm new here (Hi!) so will try starting it off. I just found WCC via the RoboCup coverage. I live in Stevens Point and while I like all sorts of vintage computers, I only collect IBM-brand ones. (Gotta set some limits...
