I believe Kodak recycled the case and keyboard for there PC based digital to prints ordering kiosks. They just removed the IR port and replaced the disk drive with a 1. 44 drive and slots for PC card, compact flash, MMC. Later models would remove the floppy and just put more flash memory slots in the bay with USB ports.

change the jumpers on the floppy drive and it might boot from the DOS DISK. the floppy drive has jumpers that allow it to read disk differently for different platforms the drive might go in. match the jumper pin config to a known drive of the same model which read MS DOS formatted disk.

An Amiga 500 would have cost around $6-700 at this time and would have blown this thing out of the water. It would have been bigger and no remote but someone could have designed a remote add-on and you still would have had a vastly more capable system for much less money.

Its really weird that in amongst the generic fake business slides at 8: 05 there is just a slide about the real actual Access credit card (now mastercard) from the real actual Midland bank (part of HBSC since 1992, with the correct logo and everything.

It's amazing what kind of interfaces we had to put up with back in the day. I'm glad there were people who could see the potential of computers in the future, because if I'm being honest, I'm not sure I could.

wonder if linux could read the discs, i'd say that they tweaked the protocol on reading and writing the disks. Linux should be able to at least get close or at least bit read the discs to see what's going on

Back when that came out I was working my first real job as a courtesy clerk. That freebee camera you could sign in for would have been worth 2 hours pay! Yeah, back then minimum wage was $3. 25/hour!

One thing never ceases to amaze me is how much money people used to spend on -dumb- things like this by today's standard. I know these things were likely only bought by workplaces but still unbelievable.

What kind of monitor can you connect to the RGB port? I collect and restore vintage synths and samplers, and I have a Roland S-770. How do I go about finding a monitor that can connect to it?
