Re: [Thinkpad] Sadness, looking for 760XD stuff at lenovo.com

104 MB as I recall
The hard drivers to find will be the MWAVE audio.
It is a Pentium 1 166 Mhz
They work pretty well with 98, I would not personally go to 2K
I still have some ancient stuff like that around, probably a 765D and 760ED
and whatever. Have not looked at them in years. They are rock solid, and are
great if you have some old DOS apps. The video is too slow for cable
internet, but OK for dialup. As I recall, the hard drive limit was supposed
to be around 6.4 GIG for those models, might do higher with translation
software. That unit does have video input.
