A thousand pardons - I should have known better. Sorry to all on the list!

Okay, so this means I still owe you $6.12 for my share, right?

The controller (an RQDX1, 2 or 3) plugs into the backplane. The ribbon
cable from it runs under the card cage to the bottom of the backplane,
where there is a distribution board which splits the signals into
connectors for cables connect to up to two hard drives, and one
connector for a floppy.

Thanks... I'll have to recheck the manual, I guess I missed it. Now
I have to figure out what 'off' means... shorting pin 4 to what other
pin (shorted low or high).
I'm thinking of trying a KA630 as a coprocessor in a qbus pdp-11
system.
The KA650 manual mentions using the same board, but it says that only
the off-off configuration is supported. I wonder if the KA650 can
be a co-processor as well... But then, the KA650 doesn't have on-board
memory.

I would like to extend a warm 'thanks!' to all of you who participated in
the Teledisk Pro group buy.
We've sold all our available shares. Sydex said that we definitely had to
limit it to 50 people, tops, and that we've now got.
I would also like to thank our list moderator (cripes, I don't even know
who it is nowadays...) for allowing me to coordinate this effort on
CLASSICCMP.
Now the real work starts... getting the paperwork done! ;-)

Well, that depends.
PanValet (by Pansophic systems, originally) had version _tracking_ by line
number, and you could have multiple libraries, and migrate things between
them. There were similar competitive systems. Wisconsin DOT had PanValet
when I arrived there in 1975.
Amdahl UTS was Unix, complete with version control I imagine. Seems to me
this was around about 1980.
Hope that helps.

No, you got into it for the groupies and the fame. ;-)
Or maybe you got into it because you saw highly under-appreciated
old computers selling for next to nothing, which is another way of
saying that you're wise and anticipated a market that hadn't
reached its full potential.

The model number for the Monitor is 4863 (with my luck it's probably the
most common one). No light pen or HD (that's where the "pretty much" comes
in). I have't inventoried the software box yet but I've noticed the BASIC,
DOS 2.10, IBM Writting assistant and Print shop. I'm not sure when I'll get
around to setting it up.
