FWIW, I run vintage IBM PS/2 microchannel machines for ham apps.  I
have never had any detectable RFI on any band from them, and I've had
up to four running at a time.  These are the most RF-tight machines you
can find.  They won't run anything Win2K or newer, but the later models
run Win9x/NT4 very well.  Not to mention, OS/2 and Linux....

One of my favorites: http://ohlandl.ipv7.net/

If the PS/2 Model 95 can be called the 'Ardent tool of capitalism',
then the R390A must surely be the "Ardent tool of Democracy'.  It's a
shame IBM never built any...
