List of RM Computers
While I was investigating for more information about RM computers, researching
and gathering lots of information scattered all over the Internet, as well
receiving more missing information especially from RM User Group members like
Matzo while Poggs designing PC-186 ZNET Test Utility and tje is helping me with
my RM Net LM 2.0 inquiries. They've inspired me to make my own list of RM
Computers similar to
epocalc: Computer models database except adding a thumbnail pic which it can
be clicked on any pic to enlarge as well going in a bit more detail on every RM
Nimbus / RM models, covering all the 486's, D-Series - both AT & ATX case
versions, X-Series, etc. Please note it's still work in progress stage.
