i have recently been given an old Zenith laptop model ZFL-181-92. batteries
discharged or dead. no power supply. i would like information if anyone
can help me on what type of power supply to use. the label on the bottom
of the systems says: DC 12 V, Plug-in power supply Model 150-272.
i'm hoping someone out there has one of these puppies and can tell me the
power rating and polarity spec's (the power jack is not marked as to which
pole is positive). i haven't cracked the case open yet but am interested
in more information on this system if anyone can educate me. i think this
is an old 8088-based box? it has no hard drive but does have dual ("pop
up") 3-1/2" drives (someone has written "720" on them so they're presumably
720 k drives). i wonder if this will run a generic DOS?
any help appreciated. tx.

I find that has alot to do with the amount of certain resins in the
plastics. It's hard to keep a controlled mix on those injection molders
sometimes... I speak from experience. :)

I just had the most wonderful bit of luck, and have been offered the
Kaypro II, 4 and 10 in the one hit, for almost nothing. Anyway, the
person offering them was curious (and now so am I) regarding the
existance of the Kaypro 16. Was there indeed such a system, and how sis
it differ from the others? And did Kaypro make anything else?
Thanks heaps,
Adam.
Hello.
Someone wanted a the Vitrual Turing machine earlier. I've got both .zip (for Win) and .tar (for Unix) formats, 87K a piece. Please contact me if you're still interested.
Sorry that it took so long,

I've saved 2 Apollo 3500's from the dumpster
at work. Unfortunately, I know nothing about
Domain OS, nor was I able to save the books,
software or tapes.
I did however save the complete units,
including the 14" color monitors, keyboards
and 1 of the mice. The one unit I've opened
up is configured with 24M ram, and the
340MB ESDI drive.
Since there seems to be no good port of
any other operating system, I'm looking for
a good home for them. I take best offers
for the next couple of weeks with one
caveat - you must come to St. Louis to pick
them up. I am not in a good position to
freight ship these units, and don't have the
time to build a suitable crate/pallet.
Please reply by email, since I don't get to
read the digest as quick as I would like.
Thanks!

Many months ago, I saw an old tower at a thrift store for $20. I did not take
it, and now wonder what I missed.
It was a tall tower case, kind of like a PS/2. I think it was a WYSE. It had
two LED displays, one said something like 8, the other ".2". There was a 51/4"
floppy drive, and I could see an MFM -like hard drive through the half-open
case, mounted at the very top. It worked, but all it had on the grey sheet
metal back was a power connector, four 15-pin terminal ports and 4 ethernet-
like connectors.
What did I miss?
