For my work, I need an IBM PC compatible system. I know that I can buy a PC board, more memory and a hard disk for my system, but the price tag is too high. So, what I'd like to find out is: 1- Is there a cheaper way to convert a Compupro into an IBM PC compatible machine? 2- Is it possible to trade in or exchange my sytem for a PC or a compatible? 3- If possible, what steps should I take to sell my system? I need to resolve this issue as quickly as possible, so please, any info will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Jack Bicer Bicer.ES@XEROX.ARPA
