PVS Research – a step closer to Telepathy?…

“Remember that this is only basic Yes / No communication in response to leading questions – extremely rudimentary. However, it is only one step away from the Telepathic equivalent of the invention of Morse code. “……

No hard disk. It uses 720K floppies, from prior to when the HD (high density) 1440K (1.44 MB) floppies took over completely. One of the BIOS utilities might format a disk for you — I don’t recall and don’t want to unpack mine right now to find out.

Hmm. I don’t know if it would support any flavor of windows, what with that 64K maximum memory.

Mine does boot DOS, and Minix (precursor to Linux). It might even boot some greatly minimized version of Linux.

If you’re interested (email me to discuss), I’ll see if I can format a bootable disk and a minix set for you in exchange for some disks and a SASE.

I picked one out of a thrift store today. It says disk error when booted. however i am using an FC Twin NES/SNES power cord instead of its original power cord.
pressing CTRL + ALT + DEL makes it reboot.
also pressing scroll lock takes it to some kind of bios screen where you can look at registries, test peripherals etc. Does It contain a hard disk drive, If so what operating systems can it support. The only disks I have are WINDOWS 3.1 and old mac 128k disks. I know it can support dos but what about windows?
