There is no license, it was a handshake between people in Caldara and
Tim.

I just heard on the news: no steak knives in First Class anymore.
That'll thwart those pesky terrorists!!

Apparently, I shouldn't have left town. Someone here mentioned the
Chronograph that went for $39 on eBay during the third week of August.
Shortly thereafter, from St. Louis, another one went, with box, for
$10.50 after two bids. :-(
Foo!

I'm not connected to the auction in any way. I was just browsing and
throught I'd let everyone know.

YIKES... humm... then maybe I don't want them (although, still, if they
are going to the dumpster, I would probably play with them for a while
before returning them to the dumpster, or passing them on to someone else)

looks like it hit sideways on edge, taking out that side of the building. a
B24 hit the ESB, not that much damage.
Since I've finally gotten my 2000Access system up AND obtained a fair number
of 7900/7906 cartridges for it, I was looking for a cartridge rack.
The style I'm thinking of is simply thick metal wire/rods, formed into a
long tripod affair. This type was typically put on top of the computer rack
or on a table, and 7900/7906 media (think RK05 or IBM 2313 cartridges) just
got set in each slot on their side. This rack just held the media until use,
very much like the wire tabletop mag tape racks. I'm looking for one that
holds about 7-10 cartridges or so.
If anyone has one of these to part with (or is willing to cut a long one in
half and give up half) let me know.
Thanks!

I'm not sure that it falls into either category... I bought
it recently - it does start off assuming no prior knowledge,
so from that point of view it's suitable for beginners.
It does however get very "involved" quite early on... to me
though this is a good thing, and I wouldn't hesistate in
recommending the book to other beginners like myself as long
as you're genuinely motiviated enough to want to learn - I
had to re-read some sections several times before the mental
light clicked on :-) The "eureka" moment in the bath when I
finally understood how the NAND transistor circuit worked
was too cool for words ;-)
The writing style is very clear, they give "real world" examples,
sample circuits (both good and bad, to illustrate common
gotchas), and cover a huge range of topics. It's a MUST HAVE
in my opinion.
