The Walsh Computer Technology
Computer Collection Web Pages

There is "new technology", and there is "high technology".
An IBM MCA machine is still a "high technology" computer.
-"Speedfrog" Bill from CSIPH


Welcome! These pages contain information on IBM Personal System/2 Model 25 computers as well as some MCA and PS/2 related hardware information. I've also posted some pages about a few of the various PS/2 and Microchannel clone systems I own, both now and in the past. (Unfortunately, my collection was heavily damaged in a 2004 flood caused by the negligent behavior of city administration. Many things could be saved, some could not and others slipped away before I knew one way or the other. Ever since that time, updates to this page have been...sporadic...at best. As such, many things have fallen into disrepair. I make no claim that information here will be updated on any kind of a schedule, or even at all.)

Please feel free to drop me a line. I may not always be the quickest to respond, but I love to read e-mail and will reply as soon as I can! Should you not get a reply, please check your spam filter or junk e-mail folder.


I am always looking for PS/2s, Microchannel hardware and any Microchannel clones that are in need of new homes. If you're located in the US and have such things, send me an e-mail through the link above. Likewise, if you have PS/2 or Microchannel software, manuals or any other resources...drop me a line!
