It was discussed on the list earlier that Doug P was bringing a Compaq portable 1 to work on and I and someone else had offered to bring a working machine for comparison. (Mine is a plus). Probable don't need two so checking if that was still desired and if I should bring mine or someone else was bringing a working one. Mine still has covers off.
I can bring my portable if it's a better match - mine is a standard that's been upgraded with a HDD. I seem to recall it has the "early" motherboard. On Fri, Aug 23, 2019 at 11:57 AM David Gesswein via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:

It would be great if you guys can pull all the Compaq Portables from the warehouse and have a fix-a-thon. See how many we can get working from parts of others. On Fri, Aug 23, 2019, 12:11 PM Jason Perkins via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:

I have a Portable 286 but it works fine so I'm leaving it at home. On Fri, Aug 23, 2019, 12:43 PM Evan Koblentz via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:
