I'll tell you more specifically what hardware is in it
when I hook it up to my monitor and install an OS on
it.
Here's what I know by looking at it.
It has 4 memory chips in it. 2 are clearly marked 12
meg. the other 2 are smaller but unmarked.
a 543 meg scsi drive. (some really small scsi
connector. not SCA or 50 pin...I am newish to SCSI)
Built in sound/network card/scsi.
1 free PCI slot.
Enough to make it the firewall/router that I want to
use it for. :)
It doesn't have a CD-ROM, but I can hook an external
scsi cd-rom up to it. Any CD-ROM donations accepted,
e-mail for address. *Grin*
I'll find a way to get the OS on it though. Even if I
have to fork out some money for this CD-Rom.
