Hi, in this video I'm going to give you a quick overview of the IBM expansion unit. a neat way to expand the capabilities of your IBM PC 5150.
Join me as we go over the hardware, discuss on how the expansion unit is hooked up to the PC, and some of the issues I encountered in getting it up and running.
