I am on a major computer manufacture's surplus equipment bid list.
The list that came out today has a lot of equipment that would be of
interest to people on this list.
I am not interested in making any money from this all that I ask is that all
costs will be covered. I will have to pay the shipping from them to me and
that will needed to be figured into the final cost. I have just spoken to
Bruce Lane about this and he is putting it on his web site. I would also
ask that anyone that is interested in putting in a bid just email me with
the line of interest and $ they want me to bid per unit. You can bid on any
# up to the quantity listed. Please include your Phone # In case of any
questions.
If there are multiple bids on one item I will try my best to use the time of
the bid to
choose priority. I have no intention of making any money from this and hope
people will understand if I get flooded I may have to cut things off.
To give me time please let me know of any interest by Sunday Oct. 25 to give
me time to reformat and sort everything for sending in the final bid by noon
Monday.
Also please keep any phone calls to before 10:00 PM eastern time. I try to
keep peace with the wife :)
Thanks

Hey folks! I got this from the Heath reflector I am subscribed to. I
already have an H8 that I built back in '83 so one of you should get it. I
believe the SS-9000 Ron refers to is a Heathkit communications receiver
(shortwave rcvr.) which can be controlled by computer. Have to check my old
Heathkit catalog file on this.
Email Ron directly.

I'm looking for a Lisa 2 or 2/5 I/O board. That's the version of the board
with the nicad battery pack; the 2/10 I/O board did not have the battery or
supporting electronics.
Actually I'd be interested in any spare Lisa parts at all, working or not.
Cheers,
Eric

Yes the it fits the description of being 20 years old and 10 years ahead
(loosely:)

Actually, Tim Mann's TRS-80 page is where I got the disk images. I was
going to get xtrs, but I don't have Linux (nor do I have the money to get
it). I have an emulator that'll run in DOS, but won't recognise the file
format of the disk image.

emulate Mod I, and can emulate Mod III arfer $45 registration fee).

For some reason, I thought Linux was like $50, or something.
Just forget that comment. I'm downloading it now.

You've got to be a real masochist or something, I HAVE TO work with it and
I'd give it away for any other OS. Unless you're talking about the COCO
version which I heard was pretty good for the platform it was intended; OS-9
is a dinosaur (and I don't mean a lean mean one)
To quote one definition I read : OS-9 is a 20 year old OS that is 10 years
ahead of it's time (for those who don't get it: it's 10 years outdated
relying on reputation)
