I am looking into buying an hp 486 esia machine. Can anyone tell me good/bad stories about it? Hp use to have some compatibility problems in the clone world, how are they now? Any comments on running unix on it? I have some standard AT cards I would like to use on it, any problems? Can I get an esia scsi card for it?
