I recently came into possession of what I assume is an Eduquest fifty five. (image attached)
I read it as fifty five, though I will admit it might be a thirty five. I just can't tell. The price was unbeatable in either case so once it gets here tomorrow, I will know for sure. I have my doubts as according to the tracking number it is currently just outside of Omaha, NE and no matter how many times I press F5 it hasn't moved.
Yes, like a kid on Christmas eve, I'm "excited". To say the least.
So, doing some preemptive research, I have come up a bit dry. I'm fairly certain it has sound. I'm not overly interested in token ring, but it would give me an excuse to break out the MCU. I was told it booted, and it had 15mb of ram, and has the symptoms of a dead battery. (shocking) the 15mb of ram, I hope is a typo, 16 makes much more sense, and if he is correct, it would be a concern to me. I don't doubt the guy I'm getting it from. I honestly just jumped headfirst into this.
so, ultimately i'm asking the following;
1. any pitfalls that I should avoid? I'm going to treat this thing like a Model 25 for now.
2. any particular images anyone want? - I will post proper images here once I get it, don't worry.
3. Rom dumps? Hard drive files? etc?
4. upgrade options? - I have a POD-83 I assume will work.
