well, if the drive can be accessed somewhat, then it's not a catastrophic
failure; maybe a LLF will do it? I've heard that only a lisa and maybe an
apple /// are the only computers that can LLF a profile. can anyone verify?

They are basically Kaypro reprints of the DRI manuals for CP/M.

I've received a ProFILE interface for my Apple II but the spare 5
meg (at least I think it's 5 meg) ProFILE drive I had seems to have
died. Does anyone have a spare one available? Maybe someone
out in the hardware rich west coast? Or can anyone repair one? It
makes a clicking noise as it spins up and keeps clicking as the
drive is spinning. Sometime ProDOS can access the drive but
most of the time it just returns an error. Any help?
Thanks.

I have one used (What other kind could there be?) pdp 11/34 CPU and an RL 02
drive. It seems lonely sitting in my garage but I can't bring myself to send
it to the local metal recycler. The system was fully operational when
replaced by a "Stratus" system. It was operating as some kind of message
switch.
I also have a rack of "Data Comm General" 1200-9600 modems for dedicated
lines.
Any interest in these fine specimens?

If these are copies of CP/M for the Kaypro (2.2), I'm interested in two,
one for me and one for another Kaypro owner here in town.

I'd like this, too.

What model?

I know that the general level of interest in things Kaypro is low amongst
the members of this list; however, I am offering first crack at the items
on the following list to the members. I will be posting it to comp.os.cpm
on Wednesday or Thursday, but in the meantime it is for classiccmp alone.

What printer is it?
it sounds like the declaser series and it's possible the HV are down or the
drum is dead.

Hi all,
I picked up a pair of Intel extender cards in my travels and I'm
wondering if anyone knows what they might be for. They have two sets of
contacts with 80 contacts in each (40 per side per set). The contacts in
each set have 1/10" spacing. No, they're not MultiBus :-( They have long
guides built onto them to support the card being tested. Any ideas?

This, I agree, is a scam.
Problem seems to be that Ebay is just so huge. I heard so much about Ebay
here that as a joke I listed an old, empty, Zippo fuel can. It sold for
$22.22 plus shipping! My Lord, that explains the stupid prices for old
computers on Ebay. These people have no lives and a hell of a lot of money.
Now if I only could find that old can of......
