I just got hardcopy catalong this week and also checked on line. They have it! The 8080A is the same thing and the 6800 also came in a B part (different speed). Allison

Victor 9000

by jrkeys＠concentric.net

This machine came with a green-phosphor, slow-phosphor screen that's sharp and rock steady. The screen tilts up and down and left and right for maximum comfort. It has a silent keyboard with a large shift key next to the Z, the return key is also large, and the cursor-movement keys are separate from the numeric keypad. The disk drives are 5 1/4-inch and hold 640k each and are expandable to 1200k each. 128k of user programmable memory is standard. It sold for $4995 new. It had a 16-bit … [View More]

<Well I want it for my CPU collection and therefore it is QUITE different <to me... < Enrico, What your saying is you want a real Intel 1974 C8080D date code part! That's the commercial grade cermet package part that was the initial offering. Not an AMD, NEC or some dozen others, not all identical. On the other hand if you really wanted all of the various permutations of the 8080 and there are at least 4 or 5 (all pre 1979) I know of. You'd have to consider the 8080a a find as … [View More]

[11/34A] ARRRRGH!! <sound of head banging on wall>

by dseagrav＠bsdserver.tek-star.net

The BUS ERROR wasn't from the card not being installed. I reinstalled everything, and it refuses to boot. Apparently, I've snipped the wrong wires on the UDA50 slots. Or forgotten to plug things in... No, that's not it. EVerything's plugged in, the lights on the UDA strobe, I've cut the wrong pins and boogered this up worse. I really should stop destroying these machines and just pass them on to more capable people... But I like them too much. Where are the pins I am SUPPOSED to have clipped?… [View More]

11/44's

by JAiken8269＠aol.com

I saw your request for info regarding UNIBUS pinouts. I will try to look them up for you... no promises though. I have a complete set of 11/44 boards and a couple of 1 MB memory boards for it. Would you be interested in them? Reasonable offers or begging will be considered. John Aiken JAiken8269(a)aol.com
