The Assemblies
The whole 9845 computer was a highly modular system. One of the drawbacks is, that there are almost no repair service information other than how to exchange complete assemblies ("board swapping"). Nevertheless, the 9845 already incorporated a variety of modern concepts like thermal design, air flow channels, expansion slots for both system upgrades and peripheral interfaces, as well as CRT display, mass storage and printer integrated into a nice, robust and serviceable industrial design, which was cutting-edge at the time and exemplary for later workstations and personal computers.
