Hello, I have decided to sell my Tandy Model 100. It comes complete with both the owner's manual and service manual, a soft vinyl case, modem/phone cable and cassette cable. Works great! Since I didn't know what to ask, I went ahead and listed it on AuctionWeb. Here's the link to bid and get more info, see picture, etc: http://www.ebay.com/aw-cgi/item.cgi?item=lvp42398 Thanks and any questions, please feel free to ask.

Regular Post: Mailing Lists

by bill＠booster.bothell.washington.edu

ClassicCmp Regular Posting Mailing Lists and How to Talk to the List Robot This message is posted with frequency proportional to subscription rate (or monthly). Mailing List Basics A mailing list is a simple device which takes an e-mail and redistributes it to a group of people. People can add and remove themselves from the distribution list by Subscribing and Unsubscribing. When you send a message to the list, it is first examined by the robot for key words that tell it to process an automatic funtion (like help, subscribe, unsubscribe, etc). If the message does not contain a keyword it is sent to the distribution list. How to Talk to the Robot There are a few List Processor commands that you might want to use. To send a command to the list processor, write a message to listproc(a)u.washington.edu. In the body of the message (not the subject line, that is) write one of the following commands. Then send the message. SET CLASSICCMP MAIL ACK Tells the robot to send you a copy of messages you write to the list. This is the default. SET CLASSICCMP MAIL NOACK Tells the robot NOT to send you a copy of messages you write to the list. I don't recommend this. SET CLASSICCMP MAIL DIGEST Tells the robot to send you a digest of messages rather than each as it is posted. With this option you will get a weekly bundle of messages and keep a nice, tidy in-box. SUBSCRIBE CLASSICCMP Your.Address Subscribes you to the list. UNSUBSCRIBE CLASSICCMP Your.Address Removes you from the list. That's the basics. If you need to know more just drop me a line at bcw(a)u.washington.edu. Bill Whitson ClassicCmp "owner" bcw(a)u.washington.edu bill(a)booster.u.washington.edu

Computer Listing

by HamiJohn＠aol.com

In the few days this group has been going, I have been taken down memory lane over and over again! I would like to propose that we begin documenting all the great classic computers of the past. I suggest it be a SIMPLE compilation such as: Name/Model Manufacturer Date released/stopped RAM/ROM included Languages included Ports included Peripherals offerred etc. Of course the exact categories need to be decided by discussion on this mail list. And somebody would need to tabulate the info (then publish the list monthly). Finally, an "expert" committee for those items "in dispute"! Well ... what do you think?

Computer Listing

by dlormand＠aztec.asu.edu

I'm not totally sure yet another ad hoc list is in our best interests. There are some Web sites dedicated to Classic Computers that list some/most of the old sets and what went with them (peripherals, memory, etc.). If you feel that a seperate list is still a good idea, BMG, but I'd like to see a list of "history" Web sites and how good you think they are. Some, like Rich Polivka's page, are dedicated to a single machine (our trusty TI). I imagine other machines have something similar. -- ********************************************** * David Ormand *** Southwest 99ers * * dlormand(a)aztec.asu.edu *** Tucson, Arizona * **************************** TMS9900 Lives! *

Whoops!

by bill＠booster.bothell.washington.edu

Y'know, every once in a while you shoot out a message and immediatly realize you just did something embarrasing. And there's not a damn thing you can do ;). I just said to thank Dan Tucker for the html work on the comp list. And within seconds of pressing send remembered that actually it's a shared mailbox and the guy I've been chatting with for that last few days is, in fact - Brett Crapser. So, everybody say "Thanks, Brett!" And I'll go bury my head in the sand :x Bill Whitson ClassicCmp "owner" bcw(a)u.washington.edu bill(a)booster.u.washington.edu

Compaq Model III, anyone?

by bboys＠mcja.com

Would anyone like to have (ie, for FREE) a Compaq Model III? It's one of those newfangled 286s, but it does have a cool fold-out LCD screen. The 5 1/2 floppy works but the hard drive is doubtful. If you're interested e-mail me to figure out how to get it to you. Brian bboys(a)mcja.com
