I have, in storage, an Epson Equity II.
I thought it was an XT clone with a 'real' Intel 8088, but I'm not 100%
sure on that. Over the years it ran MS DOS 2.1->5.0, which is where I
think I left it. Hasn't been powered on in over 20 years. I think I
still have the original keyboard and green monochrome display.
Rest of the specs:
640 K RAM
Hercules-compat graphics
DSDD 5.25" flopppy
20 MB MFM (Seagate ST-225) HD.
