Apple Mac SE/30 monitor available?

by freddy＠kotelna.sk

Hello again, perhaps a bit uncommon question, but does anyone in (preferrably middle) Europe have a 9" crt tube for Mac SE/30? I suppose it's the same as in SE, the box definitely looks the same. I've broken mine by accident, and really would like to use this box ;) Thanks in advance, -- freddy ...for more info 'finger freddy(a)kotol.kotelna.sk'

Looking for certain software packaging ($$$)

by vcf＠siconic.com

I am searching out any retail software packaging that conforms to the following description: The front cover of the packaging has a flap that opens up (like a book) to reveal a manual or pamphlet inside. The flap must be part of the box itself, and not part of a sleeve that slips over the box. I have Delrina WinFax Pro 3.0 which almost fits this description but the flap is part of a sleeve that fits over the main box. Any software in question must have been published or put on the market prior to March of 1996. One possible example may be Delrina WinFax Pro 4.0 (which is what I was originally searching for a couple months back). If you have any software packaging that fits this description, please contact me directly at <sellam(a)vintage.org>. There is a bounty for this! -- Sellam Ismail Vintage Computer Festival ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ International Man of Intrigue and Danger http://www.vintage.org * Old computing resources for business and academia at www.VintageTech.com *

Ebay [was: Re: The ACE is recovering :-)]

by Antonio.Carlini＠riverstonenet.com

>rating, 99% positive. The problem? He's given me a shipping price of EUR2.55 >per batch of three chips, plus EUR1 for three ROMs. I've ordered six ROMs, >so that comes to EUR3.55 x 2 = 7.10. But he seems to be ignoring my mails >requesting a postage price for me. Bear in mind I'm in England (ho hum). The What's the problem? If you are happy about the total price (7.10euro) for the ROMs just pop 8 euro into an envelope with a letter wrapped round them indicating where you want them posted to. Include an email address and I expect he'll get back to you if there is a problem. This has always worked for me ... both with Europe and the US. Antonio

Little score, & possible VAX 630 rescue...

by dwoyciesjes＠comcast.net

On the way home today, I decided to stop at the local Goodwill, in my (never-ending?) search for Mac ADB keyboard cables. Well, I picked up a working Mac SE/30 w/ keyboard for $5.00, and a 18" x 30" Guiness chalkboard for $12.00. No keyboard cable with the Mac, though... Sigh... The search continues... A local used computer shop did net me a Mac keyboard and cable, for $10. Now, on to the Vax. I have a lead on a forgotten DEC Industrial Vax 630. I don't know what in it or anything yet. It's just the (about) 30" x 19" x 10" rackmount unit. Apparently, about 10 -12 years ago, DEC had a contract with a Southern CT company, that makes industrial keyboards and mice. DEC shipped them the Vax, to test the devices, all of them. They never asked for the machine back. The moniter that went with it has since died. That may still be around, but I don't know. As far as they know, the Vax still works. Well, at least last time the powered it up. I'm waiting to see what the company wants to do with it, but if I tell them someone wants to buy it, that may help. It's a heavy little beast, so shipping may be a bit much. They'll probably prefer that you pick it up, but I'm sure something can be worked out if necessary. Contact me off-list. -- ---Dave Woyciesjes ---ICQ# 905818
