In my manufacturing tech class at my high school, my instructer has a couple small metal lathes that are controlled by this old IBM computer. He says it has a 486DX2, but the model number says 286-30. I can't get a good look at it because Im all the way across the workshop on the mills, but whenever I go over there, I look at it as much as i can. Heres how i can describe it best by memory:
Its small, it has 2 3 1/2" bays along the top right next to eachother, has no 5 1/4 bay, has a power switch on the front right about halfway down. Theres no ps/2 ports, it uses a AT keyboard, I believe it has a riser card because the rear expansion slots run horizontal, not vertical like on a usual desktop. On the front left top of the bezel it has the model number, its in a little silver oval that reads (on a angle) IBM, then under that 286-30.
