Yes, the beeps are error codes. Easy enough to figure out when we hear them. On Sun, Nov 3, 2019 at 4:53 PM Jeffrey Brace via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:

What's wrong with the convertible?
It doesn’t work properly ;)
When it boots it will display a blinking cursor screen. Perhaps it needs a new boot disk?
It used to do a RAM check, then blinking clock, then blinking cursor.
Don’t know what the beeps mean (is there an error code for different number of beeps?)
