 Ha! Thanks for making a suggestion, but it isn't
 a real old motherboard, as far as I know. I think
 I got this box around 1999-2000, on sale because
 it was already set up with Win98 and the next
 great thing in Windows was already out and being
 loaded on new systems. And I can't find a "make"
 on it. I think it might have been custom-assembled
 for the university-affiliated shop UBMicro for
 students and staff to buy with the preferred
 softwares of the Uni preloaded. There is a model
 number on it, and "Made in China". And no manual
 came with, just a graphic showing where to plug
 in the peripherals.

 I should have shopped around more, but I was tempted
 by the sale price (plus I got a discount on that as
 a Uni staff member) since my then computer was in
 the shop for surgery to fix what a lightning strike
 did to the serial port the (fried) modem had been
 on. It makes me nuts now not to have a computer handy!
