# Some stuff I got

## AcerAcros 486

| **Motherboard** | [Acer A1G 2.x](https://theretroweb.com/motherboards/s/acer-a1g-2-x) (Closest match, not sure); |
| **CPU**         | Intel 486DX2-66; |
| **RAM**         | 16 MB FPM; |

### Installed cards

 - Encore NE2000-compatible (RTL8029AS); 
 - MediaVision Jazz 16; 
 - U.S. Robotics 33.6K; 
 - [Adaptec AHA-1542CF](https://theretroweb.com/expansioncards/s/adaptec-aha-1542cf); 

## IBM eServer xSeries 220 (Type 8645)

| **Motherboard** | xSeries 220 Type 8645, EATX, somewhat proprietary |
| **CPU 1**       | Intel Pentium III 933 MHz |
| **CPU 2**       | Unpopulated |
| **RAM**         | 256 MB PC133 ECC |

### Remarks

Otherwise fairly similar to the documented [Type 8646](https://theretroweb.com/motherboards/s/ibm-eserver-xseries-220-type-8646), it notoriously uses older Pentium Pro-style VRM connectors, used up until VRM 8.4. Since Tualatin CPU's require at least VRM 8.5, it stands to reason the big difference between 8646 and mine is that I can't run Tualatin CPU's without an interposer. Damn.

## HP Compaq nx6120 laptop

| **CPU**         | Pentium M 1.8 GHz |
| **RAM**         | 2 GB DDR2 |

### Remarks

Still lacking the flash storage adapter for the IDE interface. Runs Alpine Linux from a pendrive. Alpine (and probably any other distro) has lots of issues with it's non-standard ACPI interfaces. At it's heyday, people tried to run Linux on it and were able to come up with some _gambiarras_ to make it work, but those got broken when modern-day Linux transitioned nearly all ACPI stuff to `sysfs`.
