I'm pretty sure it's nothing as >standard as normal SIMMS. IIRC, 72-pin ECC. Same stuff as used in 9000-Ex5 / 3000-9x8. Not sure if you can use generic, but I think I might have tried memory from older PC Netservers and it worked.

SB-180?

From: joe <rigdonj(a)intellistar.net> >as I would like. FWIW Dual 80 track floppy drives, 256k memory and 32 (I >think) Mb hard drive. Quite a nice machine for playing with CPM. Yes it are. > Does anyone know what's involved in adding the speech option? Also can No. >this run four 3 1/2"/5 1/4" floppy drives AND four 8" drives or only a >total of 4 drives? The manual is vague. My guess is that only a total of >four floppy drives are allowed. 4 drives max and switching from 3.5/5.25 to 8" requires a jumper, running mixed if memory serves is not easily doable. Allison

Can anyone help with a ICS Remote Monitor and Control Unit?

by rigdonj＠intellistar.net

Can anyone give me any information about the unit above? It's made by ICS Electronics Corporation and it's a model 2351. It looks like it's made to receive serial data commands to auctuate relays and sense digital inputs. One port on the back in marked "Local Term" and two other 50 connectors marked "Digital Inputs and Relay Outputs". It looks like it might be fun to play with if I can get it working. ICS won't help. They say that it's too old. (I'll remember that next time my company wants to order something from them!) Joe

Probably so, but that's not my problem because I don't use them. If it's your problem, maybe you ought to try to do something about it, like bothering the vendor or finding a different e-mail reader that actually does the sort of filtering you need done. And yes, I've got a strong opinion about this. Your computer and its software are tools; if they're not doing what you need done, maybe you need to figure out what you need done and go find tools that do those things, or go harangue the makers of your tools 'til they come up with new tools that do those things, or make new tools that do those things. -Frank McConnell

Unisys "Micro A"

by allain＠panix.com

Unisys "Micro A" Anybody know about such a system? I took in a stray cat system a few months ago, started parting it out, saw something interesting, then put it all back together again. Today I booted it up (fits on 15A, hurrah!) and determined the following: Base system: Intel mobo w/8MB (** 80386, sorry **) Adaptec SCSI OS/2 on SCSI disk internal SCSI tape (QIC) external SCSI tape (DAT) VGA card Add-Ons: Unisys "Micro A" CPU card (perhaps DC113) daughter memory card two multiplexed serial cards Another Adaptec SCSI card, apparently for the Uni half of the system. Another Internal SCSI drive two external drives Surprized it actually does stuff. The "Micro A" system is controlled by three OS/2 Apps: Admin, ODT 1, and SCS (System Control Subsystem) (nice name) (huh?). ODT 1 is a cryptic CLI system, SCS is a boot console for the HW Anybody got any beans to spill on this? is it just a big printer controller? I noticed the Micro A is apparently microcontrolled. What was it sold for? John A.

I have one, but it hasn't seen the outside of the box it is in in quite some time... --tom At 03:58 PM 6/3/01 -0400, you wrote: > I've been talking to another SB-180 owner and it's rekindled my interest >in them.

Digest #618

by witchy＠vorbis.demon.co.uk

Before I reboot this frickin' machine *again* and try to reply to digest 618 about Lisas and mail readers and such I'd just like to ask the panel what they think about being able to leave a pretty standard machine switched on for *3 days* and watch micro$oft stuff fail time and time again while Macromedia apps keep working.... Completely bloody off topic, I'll admit, but a right pain in the arse too. cheers adrian/witchy www.binarydinosaurs.co.uk - the Online Computer Museum 0:OK, 0:1
