There is a way I see New-Old-Stock as not Mint, and that's when it's not been used, just carelessly stored away, like in direct sunlight in the case of PC chassis. NOS - I consider an item New-Old-Stock if it comes in it's original box with all of the parts and was never assembled and/or used...

The DX2-66 is acutally an Intel with a Cyrix heatsink on it. I work in Redmond, and we have a local electronics shop called Vetco that has a sizeable New-Old-Stock of 486 CPU coolers, all stick-on adhesive ones with the Cyrix DX2-66 plaque on them, I took it off because I stuck it to the Intel...

The one on my FIC 486-PVT has this that broke the other day, it's used to switch between RN16-RN19 which selects the CPU type. Was just upgrading from an intel 80486 DX2-66 to an AMD 80486 DX4-100 100SV8B. May be trying some other chips as well at this point. I also would not mind getting my...

Okay, so about 2-3 years ago I came into possession of a Compaq Portable 486c with a cracked/faulty LCD panel. Now, I know these things are rare as hens teeth, but e-gods, why do online part's suppliers like ETI Express, IMPACT Computers, codemicro, memory4less, and so on have this part listed...

Looking for also this part for my 1992 Compaq Portable 486c. It's P/N 128902-001 - a 640X480 10.4" LCD VGA Color TFT Active Matrix IIRC. It's about 3/4" thick, the back is covered in very thick tinfoil, the front is quite wide and has a series of small setscrews running down one side (for...

Putting some feelers out there for this style of case I used to own a long time ago, it's my favorite design. I've only ever seen one like it though. Willing to trade if I have something you want or buy on this one. DESCRIPTION: Basically, it's a full AT version of the Compaq Deskpro...

Hi, sorry I don't have one but I DO have some details on this particular case that might help your search. That chassis is a Kingspao Model 35, I use to have a few of those a long time ago.

Went to Computer Surplus in Redmond and found this thing for the best price in the world, just needs the DB-9 female right angle connector in back repaired, something I"m working on myself ATM. It's a NEC MultiSync II 14" CRT, and it came complete with what I assume is the original cable, and...

Hi, 8088-80486 PC Enthusiast from waaaay back before it was even really a "thing" (2001). Ran a long-standing website called the "Creeping Network" that I'm planning to put back up at some time this year. I also appear under this name on youtube - dominantly as a guitarist, but I do some...
