Monitor keyboard mouse required.  They were nice and gave me a used
keyboard and mouse.  Andrew got one but they did not give him a kb or
mouse.

Nic on motherboard
diskonchip on motherboard 8Mb was in mine.

The on board vga did not work well with X.  I had purchased 2 $6 vga
cards that day and am using one of those.
