I just sent a complaint to the appropriate abuse department of the sender.
It is infected with W95.HYBRIS.GEN virus.
What I also found interesting is my incoming filters did not move it to the
classic -cmp directory like it does for everything else.

I'll have to watch it again to find out... I've forgotten.

Hi folks,
I thought I had a great idea the other day. Since the number of NTSC
machines in my collection is growing and my little NTSC portable isn't the
best of things to look at (3" screen!) I thought I'd get a TV tuner card for
my PC that would allow me to connect up my PAL machines and my NTSC
machines. Amongst other things this would let me do screen grabs of uncommon
machine boot screens and the like for the museum.
Problem - I can't find one anywhere! Does anyone know of a card that does
BOTH PAL-I and NTSC or do I need to get 2 cards? And will 2 cards live
happily together in the same box?
cheers

Does anyone know what mainframes the online service Delphi ran on?

Yes, that's right, I had almost forgotten. The XL-7700 and XLT-7720
both use IEEE-488, though at least the 7720 can have a SCSI board. I
use a 7720 interfaced to my Mac via SCSI. Gorgeous output;
indistinguishable from mainstream photographs.

A MicrovaxII in a BA32 is a mini. I VAX6440 is a super mini. VAX9000
certainly qualifies as MAINFRAME.
The '80s blurred mini/mainframe and VAX and AS400 type machines
were doing their best to foster that. The VAX (11/780!) was originally
called a superminicomputer. Then again a 8250 with a disk farm was
anything but mini.

Wait a minute...Wasn't it a 7300, not a 6300, in the "Secret of my
Success"?

I think this got lost in the server rearrange:
Anybody have information on this card reader? It says DEC CR05 on the
outside but seems to be made by Peripheral Dynamics, made in 1981. I
just acquired it and would like to figure out the I/O etc.
Thanks,

I have an Apple II SCSI card (the original, not the "High-Speed") that I
just discovered has firmware too old for use with GS/OS. On boot, GS/OS
(System 6.0.1) tells me that I need version C or newer.
Anyone have an image of the Rev C (or newer) EPROM?
Thanks!
Eric
