Rockhead, I'm no expert on this but I think that only the 8088 PC ran with two floppies and no hard drive (1979). I think everything else, the XT, 286, 396, etc. all had hard drives. I had a 286 about 1982, if I remember correctly, and remarkably we hooked up 4 dumb terminals that ran off it for simple word processing. But the problem was the hard drives were unreliable and having a bootable floppy was essential. I have one or two of each of the above in my basement, so I could check, but I am sure someone else has the facts at their fingertips while my basement is 7 miles away. ..Curiously, I have been working on Macs for the past three years. Talk about dead markets/products. ..So you tricked me into acknowledging you, Rocky. Have a good day. Regards, David S. Long on Intel and Iomega I guess I am goofing off a bit today with several posts here.
