I am a sucker for punishment and after the Acid Atari series I bought this faulty 286 motherboard from ebay, but then put it away for a few months because I couldn't face another epic repair. It turned out to be very generic motherboard and hard to find any documentation for it so I had to make do with what ever I could find. This did cause some problems later on, but I didn't stop me from trying to get it working again.
