The Rarest IBM PC Clone in the World!

The Centurion is one of my all time favorite minicomputers, but did you know, they also made an IBM PC Clone? Well, they almost shouldn’t have. The story of this thing is absolutely bonkers, and the story of how it got here is just as bonkers. So, tag along as dig in deep with a history lesson, and then try to get this old PC back up and running!
