Dell System 210

It wasn’t letting me put it in general so I’ll put it here,

I found a retro pc but I cannot find any info on it, it’s called the Dell System 210 ( not XPS)

where did you find it? i had that exact system when i was a kid. i learned dos and win 3.1 on it. my specs were 286 @ 12mhz, maxxed ram and a 32 mb hdd, i eventually toasted the power supply but by then i upgraded to a pentium.

@bignate9282  Not much of anything available on the Dell Support site for the System 210.  There's a link on that page to inquire about getting docs via email, if available, but I tend to doubt they'll still have any of them after all these years.

Asking won't cost you anything, and they might get a chuckle from your request...

@bignate9282  Maybe this will give you some new info.  With thanks to @Tatolino for finding that link.
