There is a guy in England that has or had one. I corresponded with him <several years ago and sent him a copy of the manual. My search for the <SC/MP at that time only turned up a couple of hits. < < <> P.S.: I just unpacked my SC/MP kit - Original binder, with original <> packed, still shrink warped, unassembled kit .... Herrgott I'M HAPPY :) I have a sc/mp, docs for it and a few articles as well. Built mine way back in '77 or so. Oh the national part number is isp-8A500 for the sc/mp and isp-8a600 for the sc/mpII.

Wow, this was the first ebay post I appreciate. Alot of cool and interesting items that had real rescue potential, the technologically disenfranchised. Unfortunately, to often what is hawked here aren't those ugly orphans looking for a needed home but the gleaming poster children of this bright shiny new investment opportunity. sol, altair, pdp, challenger, etc OK, I've stopped channeling Norma Ray... *whew* - Mike: dogas(a)leading.net

Classic Computer Auctions List

They have no basis in relevant Actually, it's _not_ undue inflation. The prices are always dependant on what people ask, and if there's only one vendor, the price will be whatever he damn well wants. The obvious solution is to flood the market with cheap classic computers. Wasn't there someone here who had 80 C-64s in his garage?

I have a few systems here running several different version of RSX11M+ and have some spare disk drives that I could load just about anything you wanted to retrieve. Then copy it back in many different formats including 4 or 8MM. Dan Burrows

HP1000 classic?

by cmcmanis＠freegate.com

There were a couple of HP1000 systems at the Berman auction this week, both went for $100. One had the equivalent of an RK05 in the rack. There was also a rack with an Intel 80/10 multibus system but it was just the chassis and a multibus memory card, no CPU. I actually won an auction on a SCSI 9-track tape drive (with external terminator). It is marked "5170" on the front. It is a rack mount, front loading, horizontal feed device. It claims it can do 6250 BPI. We'll see. Now to see about a program that can dissect RSX-11M BRU format tapes. --Chuck

I'd prefer not to dismantle this thing :) If it's of any interest, there is a BK-0010 (I think that's what is is anyway) emulator for Amiga computers. It's on Aminet, I think the filename has "bkemul" in it. From memory, it comes with some software incl. a Lode Runner type game. -- Mark [Off-topic: I am trying to get hold of data sheets for the following chips: Fujitsu MB86507; Fujitsu MB86312; TI TLS1044 or TLS1043; NEC uPD4216160. *Please* contact me if you have any of these!]

And now the fine print... [Re: Alto II (was Re: PDP-8 prices...)]

by joe＠barrera.org

>Well, I'm not coming to VCF, but if I was, what would the rule be for me? >Build a PERQ from a bucket of sand ? Jeez, you want everything done for you, don't you? You get an empty bucket, a pair of plastic chopsticks, and access to a beach. You can use all the sand you can get into the bucket using the chopsticks. Improper use of the chopsticks (as judged, subjectively, by Sam) results in having your bucket emptied. Any questions?
