Hello from metronid
I look here occasionally
I many run Linux or use my IPad

Could supply floppies if I still had a drive
I discarded most of my downloads a few years back
Sorry I did
I had every boot and bios and other such from priority one and other sources
I even had most of the master CDs
They are now in heaven or the land fill

We really need for each and everyone who has anything to delegate one person to archive
Most items can be zipped and ftp or exchanged in the cloud

The only thing I have left is an OEM 4mb simm that says packard bell and I think an 8mb
I have a 450mb bios and a 450 molded by me to allow up to 1.2 gig hard drive that will actually identify the HD
I did a good job on this one
I also have a start up floppy for legend 10cd which is useless as I am not sure if it even works
Probably just a dos 6.2 boot floppy king of like what is on boot disk.com


I wrote boot disks before that site existed to the best of my knowledge
He of course used his assets and should be congratulated

I still ramble
I know some info now on emmissions testing and obd2 tricks for educational purposes only

anyone still alive may reply

Hello!
We're not dead...yet. I own several Packard Bell computers. First is a Multimedia C115; second is the quite rare Corner Computer. Both work great.
What disks do you have? I have access to a large archive of PB material, but I am always looking for any disks / CDs / media that is missing.

Packard Bell Collection available.

In that case............. I monitor this ng on a daily basis. Haven't seen
any action in a very very long time.

If in fact you are always looking for PB stuff, and are anywhere near the
Cincinnati Ohio area, I would like to sell off my
rather extensive Packard Bell collection. It includes three (yes, you read
that right, 3) Packard Bell Corner Computers by the way. ( I would probably
keep one of them. ) I really don't want to ship, I'm looking for someone
close who is willing to buy everything.

The price would be reasonable, but not dirt cheap. After all, PB Corner
Computers are very valuable.
If there is serious interest, I will take pictures of everything. I don't
have as many as I used to have ( probably over 30 ), but still have probably
close
to 20. Including lots of PB software. Probably over 50 installation CD's.

Lets see what happens. . . . .
