Anyone Know Where "TheRef" Has Moved To???

by mcquiggi＠sfu.ca

Hi All: The excellent site, http://theref.c3d.rl.af.mil/, seems to no longer be available. It had a ton of useful info on hard drives and controllers. Anyone know if the site has moved, and where to? Thanks, Kevin --- Kevin McQuiggin VE7ZD mcquiggi(a)sfu.ca

Apollo manual available

by kyrrin＠bluefeathertech.com

Would anyone like a copy of 'Getting Started with your Domain System' from Apollo Computer, Inc.? Published around 1983-84, it appears to be a basic user's guide for the Apollo Domain box. Whoever wants it (and I'll be going by time/date stamp on the responses), first-come, first-served for $5.00 (covers postage, etc.) If you're local (Seattle area), and you choose to pick it up instead, it's a freebie.

HP 9000/236

by owad＠applefritter.com

>How hard should I be kicking myself for not snagging an HP 9000/236 for $30 >at a hamfest in Timonium, MD? Did any of the other folks on this list pick >it up? I've been wondering the same thing. I passed on it, too. I talked to the guy, though, and he said it couldn't boot completely and needed the OS. I made out pretty well at the show, though. Purchased: Outbound Laptop Franklin ACE 500 w/manuals & Franklin monitor Mac 128k Stack of Apple Dealer CD's TRS-80 Model 2 Imagewriter LQ Rasterops 21" Grayscale display Lots of old Mac software (including ][ in a Mac!) A bunch of Mac accessories (MacNifty, 128k/512k accelerator) Zenith Data Systems Luggable Two Apple Tape Drives One bottle of Apple Juice Total amount spent was $65. I collect Apple clones, finding two makes for a very successful hamfest.

DECpc 433 workstation/any documentation on this?

by mbg＠world.std.com

>I found the above box recently and would like to get it up. Can anyone >help me with info on this? The ram has been pulled as has the cpu so I >need to know what its chip settup was. Seems to be Intel stuff >otherwise. There are numerous adds on the net re; ram for this but >virtually no other info. Other than that, the information I've collected >is that it ran off of Dos (!?!) and was used in a token ring. >Interesting layout inside. I believe there are multiple 433 systems... if the type you have is a table-top unit about two inches thick with the 3.5" floppy on the right side of the unit, I might be able to help... contact me off-list. > I also need to know if there was anything special about the floppy >drive as I'd need to replace that as well. Last, is there anyway to rig >a harddrive into one of these? Again, if it is the one I mentioned above, yes, you can have a hard drive -- but it has to be a notebook-type 2.5" drive. I think the floppy is a standard RX23... though you might be able to put in an RX26 (2.88Mb).

HP 7910 Disk Drive

by jolminkh＠nsw.bigpond.net.au

At a regular Ham Radio Trash and Treasure sale I went to today there was a HP7910 disk drive at the bottom of a big pile of slow moving stuff that seems to be there every time. I didn't grab it because it was too deep, no time etc. Maybe next time. What system/era would this have been from? Hans
