Your computer will do far more than you ever expected it to,
and that won't be enough.

We have three 7012s at work. Two are model 320, one (the one which actually
booted last time I switched it on!) is a model 375.
They use the old Power RISC chipset in its various incarnations. We migrated to
a Sun 450 about 2 years ago when we discovered that all the RS/6000 models in
our price range were PPC and slower than our existing 375 (the exception being
the model 397 - presumably another 7012 - but even that was a bit expen, and we
wondered how long they'd go on supporting it)

ROFL! But Solstice is worse...
One thing to beware, at least on our 7012 machines, is that if you want to add a
keyboard, you need a special one. PC keyboard doesn't work (no need to guess
how I found that out a couple of office moves ago...). Display is 1280*1024,
can't remember the scanning rates, on 3 BNCs, sync on green. An IBM 6019 is
recommended :-) Mouse is a standard PS/2 mouse - plugged it into my PC and it
the setup said it had detected a Logitech mouse...

Hello all.
I have published my PDP-11 webpages.
Allthough they are not finished (will they ever be?),
I am going public because otherwise it will never happen -:)
Enjoy reading, and I am looking forward to any comments.
Happy collecting,

Hi,
Does anyone here have a few tips and trick for those of us wanting to make
the most of our VCF trip?
Any good places in the area to visit (hobby related that is) thrifts,
surpluses etc...
Thanks for the tips.

PS: Even you local can pitch in, it only for one week-end and then
everything will be back to normal :)
Picked up a Sun SPARCstation 370 today, looks like some cards are
missing has several open slots. Will give more details as I start
working with it.
PS. To Mr. Lemay went by the U today and it was empty ? What happen to
all those items you saw there ?
