I still have an old 486SX that also have a 120mb hard drive.

In fact I still have my old Amstrad 8086 machine which I presume stills works but have not booted it up for years that has 40mb hard card in the rear expansion slot. My late mum put that in for me LOL.

Amstrad 8086? Wasn't that an IBM-PC compatible? That's a name I haven't heard in a while. I also remember other UK computers like the BBC Acorn and the Sinclair computers of various marks. The two most famous ones was the Sinclair ZX-80 and the ZX-81, the latter much more widespread and was also known as the Timex Sinclair 1000.
