>I'm missing a key for one of my AS400's Does anyone know about

I don't know what key is on the AS400, if it is a round key, just call a
locksmith, if it is a regular straight key, it may be like the ones on
the PS/2's I have, which are single tumblers, and can be picked with a
paperclip in about 10 seconds (take a small paper clip, straighten it,
and then bend into a U... insert points first into the lock, and jiggle
while turning it, you should be able to hit the right spot in a few
soconds). The more tumblers, the harder it is to pick, but generally,
anything 3 and under can be done with a paper clip, over that, you might
want to call a locksmith or get a lock pick kit.

Hi,
I have a contact who needs to get rid of a VAX 11/750 and an
11/730 real soon and they are in Sommerset County, New Jersey.
A picker-upper would be preferred. There is also an HP 3000/48.
Let me know who wants them and can pick up. If there is contention,
I think one should try sharing, so let me know which one you
really really badly want if you have to choose.
Thanks,
-Gunther

Does anyone have any idea why it takes upwards of 15-20 minutes
(seems longer sometimes) for my postings to this list to get sent back out?

I got a great bunch of artifacts recently from an ex-Digit (DEC Employee)
who was finally not going to use his VAX for anything else any more.
These included:
A set a PAKs that rivals the Hobbyist offering
and exceeds it in that it has a PL/I and APL PAK.
Several RRD40 caddys and a couple of the SCSI version
of the RRD40 (I'm on the look out for the non-SCSI
version, will trade one for one!)
A VAXServer 3100/M48 (yet another one I didn't have
yet.) with all the option cards (multi-serial, DMF32,
etc)
A bunch of manuals, including the VT103 users guide
and a bunch of VAX 11/730 manuals (including the CPU
technical manual!)
An Ultrix-32 Condist for VAX (v3.0)
Three VMS Condists (5.2, 6.0, and 6.1)
Cables for various things.
Some RTL replacement parts for the PDP-5 !!!!
Bits of ephemera from the DEC hey day (VAX brochures,
DECUS disks, etc)
Some more docs
Available for trade:
TU58 Technical Manual
TU58 User's Guide
RL02 User's Guide
RL01/RL02 manual
Some DECConnect stuff and a crimping tool with about
20 MMJ "heads"
Lots of little detail parts that are so hard to come by when you need them.

Hi,
recently somebody (Chuck?) posted an URL for scanned DEC manuals
<http://208.190.133.201/decimages/moremanuals.htm>. Today I've
seen that a lot of manuals are no more available. Does anybody
know something about this or about other sites where the manuals
are still available?
Regards,
Lipo

That used to be two separate magazines, "Practical Electronics" which was
been around for, well, forever (mid '60s); and "Everyday Electronics" which
was more recent (mid '70s, aimed at beginners). EPE is the result of a
merger.
I bet some of the current staff have been around long enough to know what
you're looking for. Try http://www.epemag.wimborne.co.uk/

In search of 6 of the vented original 5.25" half height filler plates for my
new Server 320 - just mainly for looks. I have all the bays full of hard
drives so that's why I need to fill all 6 bays. I understand that Server 325
hot swap trays fit the 320 so maybe the 325 filler plates work as well.
Will pay up to $1 each for them (plus mailing of course) and would love it
if one person has all of t hem but can get one or two from each person until
I get what I need. OR I have some excess SCSI controllers and memory cards
(no ram) for microchannel 286 and 386 level machines I can trade if
possible, as well as various ESDI hard drives from PS/2 55SX and 70
machines.Drop me a note direct if you have these plates to spare. I'm in the
middle of the US (KY) so postage isn't much from any part of the US or
Canada.
