Pentium 90 eh.....Hmm.....not real sure about that now. I guess I thought
they were faster platforms. Granted I want to learn on it, but a 90 is
almost a dinosaur anymore.

Bill,

Multia 166 MHz = Pentium 90
External CD-ROM can be purchased to attach to the built-in SCSI II
adaptor.
An external modem can be attached to the built-in serial port.
You can add a good video card if you choose.
You can also add an external backup device using the SCSI II adpator.

Paul
