Crappy TRS-80???? The only thing they didn't copy were the shortfalls
and bugs!
I think the L-systems (aka Ldos people) did it better.
Allison
Its interesting to note that of the three PDP8e's that have sold on Ebay this
past few months, the winning bids have dropped from close to $2000 to just
under $900.

I just moved and things are difficult to find,
but I did find my MicroMate, just couldn't find
the user manual. The external disk interface is
(I assume) pretty standard, consists of a PC
board edge with 34 plated fingers (17 on each
side) spaced .1" on center.
The MicroMate system disk has a cool utility
that allows you to configure any of the external
drives as one of about a half dozen different
CP/M disk formats. The details escape me until I
find that user manual.

Actually, Personal Micro Computers had just
the opposite problem. They started with the
PMC-80 that included a built-in cassette drive.
Then they came out with the PMC-81. As I
understand it, these were sold around the world
with names like Color Genie, TRZ-80, etc.
Then Tandy sued them. In what was the first
case of firmware infringement, Tandy said that
the keyboard input routine was a little too
close to the original (or words to that effect).
http://www.slwk.com/papers/paper3.htm
That is when they came out with the PMC-101
"MicroMate".
I have all three machines.

Heard about it for the first time today, talking with drive-time
friends on the local 2m repeater. One person was quite enthused,
but others were somewhat hesitant -- "It's not real ham radio, since
you use the internet for the real hop" and "Why not just use your
cell phone, it's no different."
I checked out their web site, and am bothered by the fact that they
install the software (they do) after you have installed linux on
your system... I asked if the source is or would be available at
some point and haven't gotten a response... I don't install any
software on my linux box that I can't get the source for... and
I certainly will NOT allow someone else to install binaries on
it...

Subject: Re: Computer collection
Hi Rich
Thanks for your reply. I've included a complete list here in case there is
anything at all you're interested in...
As I said before, I have a substantial collection of 'antique' computers,
mostly 'first editions' of systems such as Apple, IBM, Sirius, Apricot,
Macintosh, Epson, etc. These are not old and used, they are mostly in
pristine condition in their original boxes with manuals, software and
literature. The only reason I'm selling is that I have to move house and
will not have enough room any more.
If you are interested please let me know. I am open to offers for the whole
collection but, realistically, I expect people will be more interested in
one or several individual items. In that case I'll probably hang on to some
things.
Please make me an offer on any items you are interested in . You would need
to collect or pay for carriage from NW London (UK).
Please also pass this on to anyone else who may be interested.
Thank you.
It's a long list, you have been warned!....

GR made a few cards for QBus systems. I have a GR "RX02" which has a
50-pin Shugart interface and works with ordinary 8" drives. It's a
dual-height card. It's also capable of handling dual-sided "RX03" format,
and I think up to 4 drives. There's an on-board bootstrap option. Plessey
made (badged?) a very similar (if not identical) board. I think I have the
manual somewhere. These boards were quite popular. I've seen one built
into a single 8" drive case with an M8186 (11/23) and an M8047 (MXV11-A).
I also have a GR DHV11, 16-channel QBus multiplexer, with channel zero
mapped to the console address. It's a quad-high and needs a special
3U-high distribution box, which has (IIRC) three stacked PCBs containing a
Z80 and some "stuff". Unfortunately mine is faulty :-( I don't have any
docs, all I know is that it appears at addresses 160020-160036 (DHV11) and
170500-170502 (DM11 multiplexer) as well as 177560-177566 (console).
According to my register dump, that is.

KB1GMX... Old computers new gimmicks.
Hi there
I'm based in the UK with a collection of pristine classic computers to sell
and have been asked to post the full details to this list.
It's a substantial collection of 'antique' computers,
mostly 'first editions' of systems such as Apple, IBM, Sirius, Apricot,
Macintosh, Epson, etc. These are not old and used, they are mostly in
pristine condition in their original boxes with manuals, software and
literature. The only reason I'm selling is that I have to move house and
will not have enough room any more.
If you are interested please let me know. I am open to offers for the whole
collection but, realistically, I expect people will be more interested in
one or several individual items. In that case I'll probably hang on to some
things.
Please make me an offer on any items you are interested in . You would need
to collect or pay for carriage from NW London (UK).
Please also pass this on to anyone else who may be interested.
Thank you.
It's a long list, you have been warned!....
