FS: thin client computers for DOS radio programming


 

I recently sold five of these and found I still have a bunch more of these little machines.

I have one myself I use with freeDoS on a USB thumb drive with all the DOS based RSS, GE, etc and it just works.

The thumb drive files can be accessed on a newer machine where you can backup or add more DOS programs.

These thin-clients have a REAL serial port.
And are 12V!?

Setup isn't hard or seriously involved. I'll post a YouTube video and send a link to buyers.

Instead of back and fourth on shipping, $45 for medium flat rate box Priority Mail, CONUS.
Contact for AK, HI, and international.

Computer only.

The line separating good and evil passes not through states, nor between classes, nor between political parties either¡ªbut right through every human heart¡ªand through all human hearts. This line shifts. Inside us, it oscillates with the years. And even within hearts overwhelmed by evil, one small bridgehead of good is retained. And even in the best of all hearts, there remains ¡­ an unuprooted small corner of evil. - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn


 

I May be interested but can we see specs on this device??

These are good for FreeDOS so the specs below are well suited

Via 800MHz CPU
128MB ram.
64MB disk on module, but that is not used with freeDOS on a USB thumb drive.
