Classic Computer People!
Since I think this stuff is neat, I will only send this to
ClassicCmp and Port-Vax lists.
I need to get rid of this stuff. I will take bids on this
stuff until Friday(12/4/98). If this stuff does not sell
by Friday, I'll try to sell it at the swap meet Saturday ;-)
Buyer assumes the shipping costs from Las Vegas, Nevada, USA.
Thanks
Dean Nelson

harrumph; typical clueless non-computer type that thinks any old computer is
worth plenty. there's a guy at an established flea market that tries to get
the same price out of old machines. i bought a northgate 386/20 from a guy at
work and even got the great northgate keyboard too for only $20!
heh, you oughta go back to the guy and ask him if he'd be willing to buy
comparable 386 and 486 models for half his asking price. i could find some
pretty cheap machines and make profit off him!

Watching people's reaction with the choke is much more fun. They get
shocked when they let go not when they are holding it.

I started diggin thru the tapes I got from knox, maybe one of them was
a backup of RSTS. Found one. The gotcha - It'll only extract to an RL02.
So, anyone got a PDP-11 with an RL02 and a TS tape? I need someone to extract
the tape for me, and shove it on a disk image like the ones E11 takes.
I should be able to unscrew myself from there.

If our office ever runs out of paper in an emergency we just
have the office across town fax over a few blank sheets.

While rummaging through the back corner of the whse I stumbled across a bare
Zilog 8000 card cage with a full complement of cards. Circa 1983 Mfg. Every
slot full. This would be a great backup card set or a way to get a non-working
Zilog up and running. I also have an extra memory card beyond that.
I also discovered a Daisy Logician Card Multibus cage and cards also. I doubt
anyone is collecting these though.
If interested please reply to whoagiii(a)aol.com directly.
Thanks for the list,
Paxton

Looks like you like to play tricks on users as well. I used to send "FATAL
SYSTEM CRASH" on networked PDP11's, VAXstations and Alphastations. It is
amazing the panic that things like that will create. Not to mention the
"Virus" messages to opa0: on April 1.

Guys:
This was posted to the NG a week ago--
DOn't know if he still has it.

IBM System 36 HDD , 27 MEG
About the size of a tower system
and three times as heavy.
It does have a clear cover over the heads and disks so they
can be observed in operation- if you can get it working which
was no mean feat and required a system 36 as the interface is
proprietary. It's also missing the drive belt between the
auto starter size electrical motor and the pulley/axle
of the disks - but an auto fan belt should be about the right size.
If you have a use (ie. display , teaching aid, etc) for it let me
know - shortly..
