G'day Andrew & Cluster,
I have fired up a P133 with:
RAM 16 Mb
Network card [checked in a working boxen]
Video card [ its a weird sucker, but it works]
FDD
Will it need an hdd during the set up process?
Does it need || & ->  ports on the board?

Are we talking about initiating the sig the meet on 15 Feb. or March 1?

cheers
Tony
