Hello,
I have recently bought a modem for my computer. My neighbour went to the computer
shop down the road to buy it for me - I got a real bargain at £99.99 ; especially as it's a really fast one -
14 killobits a second.
I am having problems installing Windows XP Home. I just bought it from PC World for £79.99 . I have heard
that I might need to purchase a CD Rom drive. I know ROM is inside the CPU but I don't know what on earth
a 'CD' is.
I know computers are moving on quickly but I noticed how antique computers cost more, so I guessed the must
be better and asked my neighbour to buy it for me - this was about a year ago now. It made made in 1986 -
that's the same year as my last Grandson was born! Funny how that happens. I can probably dig out a picture of him.
It had a new hard disk fitted by my neighbor the other week - twenty mega somethings I think.
My Grandson has included the following technical information to help me with this post (thanks son):
Name: Amstrad
Processor: Intel 8086 (8MHz)
RAM: 640KB
ROM: 16Kb
Monitor: Amstrad EGA Colour
Drives: 5.25" floppy drive
30MB ST506 hard drive
Secondary 200MB Maxtor 1600 RPM
