[Techtoolslist] 9100A motherboard revisions...

[Andre Huijts]

Checked mine, I have revision E.

Nice investigation work.

I've got two Eproms 27512, the hand-writing says V5. Is that the latest version ?

> I have six of these things in the shop right now and was noticing the revision numbers on the logic boards. The first I have is Rev. C going up to Rev. G-1 - which is the interesting one as it allows for HD floppies. This revision is a small series of jumper wires and a three cuts to the group of traces just to the right of the  Floppy Drive connector.
