In a glass window close at the entrance to the Hall of Fame, should also be my old 386, running wisely at 20 Mhz. It didn't eally participate in GIMPS, but it may deserve a place as the member-to-be. It retired on Febr. last year, leaving me with some black memories of the days that I couldn't arrange for a new computer.
Originally, it had a disc of 40 MB, which made me thought '40 MB? what will I ever write on this disc? why do they make such big discs?' My brother once stated that an old computer is still usefull, because you can put a nice beatifull cloth on it, and use it as a coffee table. Myself, when I will be given time from other interests, I will study the problem of how can you control the christmas tree lamps with an old computer. ________________________ Lampros F.
