Memory is PC-100 , at present a 256 and 64 ECC. < $40 will get me a pair of off brand 256 boards to add to the single. CPU is P3. I can buy a newer mb for about $200. First off I need to confirm that it will work as configured. I have 100’ Cat5 to the shop alll in conduit. I could go above ground and span the real distance in about 35’. The stg is an interesting beast; 8 channels, adc, dac, encoder and some I/O. Some university made and sold a nice breakout board which makes wiring easy. If a channel fails you edit the hal to reassign, lots of spares. Upward and onward. Just got a 6’ vga cable so the monitor can go back where it belongs instead of sitting on an apple box. One step at a time.
