This will date me;

I used to carry one of those around to customer sites to run diags on storage systems...(it even had a 300 baud acoustic coupler, similar to this; http://aug.99er.net/images/Peripherals/DSCN1666.JPG )

Gotta love the 5 1/4" floppy drive bay! My 1st comp had 'em. lol and Windows 3.1 .

Windows 3.1 worked. First computer I ever owned ran 3.1. I was 8.
I've been infatuated since the first time I played chess and the first duke nukem game.
