Hello

Last spring I convinced my girlfriend's family to buy an IBM PS/2 machine
at a resale warehouse.  I was not aware at how proprietary these machines
were.  I have had many headaches associated with this computer.  Recently
I decided I would like to try to upgrade this computer.  When I cracked
open the case I realized that I had a SCSI harddrive(99 megabytes) and a
SCSI 3 and a 1/2 inch disk drive.  I also have 16 megs of RAM installed.
Would it be at all possible to find affordable parts that will replace my
existing equipment?  I would like to find a CD ROM and a medium sized hard
drive (500 megabytes to 1 gig).  Any information anyone has would be
greatly appreciated.  (Hopefully someone can remember back to when they
made those computers).

Your help is greatly appreciated

Corbin
