It looks rather similar to those (has the same case)
But its an upgraded version with a 8Mhz processor with a TURBO button that overclocks the CPU to 16 Mhz :D
It also has a 9" color monitor.
Best of all it still works!
edit:
Holy crap I just stated it up and looked at the bios,
It has 640KB of ram, a 80286 processor
and 256K/64K of Dram
It probably cost around $10,000 as it was a telemetry data processor.
-
That's pretty bad as.
Where can I get one?
-
Selling out too fast, can't get my hands on one.
-
Runs on MSDOS copyright 1981-1994.

Where can I get one?
I think this might be the only one in existence set up like this... I've tried finding anything about it on Google, but I think it was custom built for NASA.
-
that could become quite the collectors item
contact nasa?
-
Nah NASA had us junk it, so I took it rather than throwing it out.

well nevermind then lol.

I probably could sell it for a few hundred bucks, but hell with that, I want it ;D

How many FPS does it get at pac-man with high settings?

No idea, it doesn't have a HDD so I'd need a floppy disk with Pac Man on it :P

Couldn't this technically be called a laptop because you can carry it wherever you go in a suitcase? Also found this on yahoo: http://finance.yahoo.com/family-home/article/112510/new-commodore-64-nyt (http://finance.yahoo.com/family-home/article/112510/new-commodore-64-nyt)

I feel like slapping you right now for confusing a Compaq Data Processor for a Commadore 64 ._.

Damn I was expecting Quad 10Core Xeon with an array of nVidia's SuperComputing GPU's & 1 TB of RAM D:
-
A new computer?
From an antique store? :3
-
So what can you run on it?
Command prompt?

Now I didn't say it was the same thing right? RIGHT?

It is a Quad 10Core Xeon with nVidia's supercomputer GPU's & 1 TB or RAM, relatively speaking....
It's just the equivalent of that from 24 years ago... ;D
Accounting for Inflation this thing probably cost a little over $10,000 new.
So what can you run on it?
Command prompt?
MSDOS tyvm, and it can decode rocket telemetry data... if I had the tens of thousands of dollars of secondary equipment required to do it...
-
do it
-
Use Test-Drive 1 to benchmark it.

If by boss you mean it would take 3,125 floppy disks to play the game then sure!

Did you use your brain to calculate that or did the compaq help ? :D

You can't, most new computers don't have floppy drives. :trollface:
