Back in June 1996, I happened to get  3 models of PS/55.   One was PS/55 5551-NAB, 486DX2/66 machine with 16MB of  RAM, 200MB  HD and  Japanese Display Adapter /J.  It run Win3.1J nicely.  When I hit and touched each keys  of  a 5576-A01 keyboard and examined the each parts inside the box,  evil species slowly but securely had been growing up deep inside of my body and brain.   After some period of incubation,  the virus  developed and dragged me down to  Microchannel Addiction Disorder . 

Now my 5551-NAB is just sitting on a shelf with am5x86-133, 1G SCSI HD, Reply SVGA, Madge Smart Ringnode and specially burnt BIOS ROM for 160MHz operation.   I don't know  how long I will keep MCA Virus within me.   Anyway  I'm still crazy with MCA .....after all these years.

In this section,  article number shows  year-month-date basically (  not for numbered as  0x000x  ). 
articles dated after 020819 will be placed at  the top and old articles will go down . 
articles dated before 020819 are not yet completed.  These articles will be uploaded at random. I've been writing these articles collecting memories ( and testing logs ) scattered in my brain and hard disks . And for the former, a powerful defragment tool is needed.
