I found this page looking for a restore CD for my newly aquired VGX-XL3. Saw that I had to make a few posts before i could download the restore CD and went about finding a few posts I could just write a few obligatory posts... Then I started to read some of the threads, in particular the 'strongest vgx-xl' thread showing what you could boost these computers to do. Now I am really looking into what I can do to get this up and running and hopefully running at peak performance.
I am a collector of mostly retro computers and gaming systems. Collector is a nice way to say hoarder, so I use the term collector. As a hobby I volunteer at an e-recycler in my home town. A week or so ago, two of XL3's came in to get recycled and I talked them into putting them into our thrift store. I am really glad I grabbed one now! The other sold within a few hours of putting them in the store.
I will be randomly searching through threads to figure out what my machine is and what its capability will be, but I am also open to someone throwing a link or two as a reply of things I should watch for or read up on before getting it fully built.
Thanks,
Matt
