Last night, at the user group, we tried to fire up an old HP 9000/822 (I
trust this falls inside the classic frame?). Unfortunately, the key has
been lost somewhere along to road, so we had to hotwire it (is this the
correct term?). We have two large sets of manuals, but they only cover
HP-UX and various monitors, so we have no idea what all the error codes at
the front panel might mean. Also, where do we connect a console? We've got
two serial muxes at the back, as well as ethernet, but that's all the I/O
we've been able to find.
Any pointers to useful beginners' HP?
OK, here is the question of the day. I was just doing a search on RT-11
and came up with the following:
Browser Statistics for Monday 17/Jul/2000
http://www.ews.uiuc.edu/bstats/days/00-07/000717.html
The line of interest reads as follows:
1 WEBROW/1.1 (RT-11; PDP11/45)
Anyone know what this is? This could just be someone having their system
setup to report as being something else.
In searching on just WEBROW I'm guessing this might be a piece of Russian
software (most of the hits were Russian web pages).

Hi all,
I just scored a Lego mindstorm 1.5 this week end unfortunately I am missing
the CD any one around got one and can make a copy? Pleas contact me off
line.
To bring it back to charter I also found an Atari Videon Touch Pad for the
2600. Were there many games that made use of it?
Thanks
Francois

That sounds an awful lot (and the part number format bears this out) like
the HDA from a Fujitsu 'Eagle' or 'SuperEagle' drive.
Any other guesses?

This looks like a Fujitsu number to me . . .

But that has little to do with my comment since Atari BASIC is not
Microsoft BASIC. MS BASIC was available seperately. Atari did thier own
interpreter which was written specifically for the 400/800 series machines
and incorporated functions specific to the hardware. Commodore on the other
hand did not build this same level of functionality into thier variants of
BASIC for the C-64 and I was just wondering if anyone knew if the MS BASIC
available for the Atari had any of it included. By your comments above, I
would assume not.

Folks,
A few days ago, someone mentioned a dutch auction on eBay for four
TRS-80 Model II computer systems (#1208570093), but there was some
confusion as to whether or not the seller actually had four systems.
I've just exchanged email with the seller, and he says that he does
indeed have four units for sale.
