RS/6000 FAQ?

by kris＠catonic.net

With all this talk of RS/6000s, I've become a little interested in what these machines can do / are capable of. Is there a hardware FAQ like the FAQABOSS or Sun Hardware Reference? -- Kris Kirby, KE4AHR | TGIFreeBSD...

Rant about cars and how stupid the world is with stupid people running it

by fauradon＠beckman.com

I'm breaking the law and responding from work. This is probably full of HTML too but hey here goes. <RANT> I can think of something more stupid than DRL and that is to use the friggin' parking lights as DRL.OK repeat after me PARKING LIGHT, PARKING LIGHT. I can see the use of DRL for safety reasons but for bob's sake don't use the parking lights. Actually nobody ever use these when they should. I like the idea of DRL because there are way too many morrons that believe that if they can see where they are going they can be seen or maybe they just don't believe that they need to be seen. I'll stop here since this is not a driving forum But leave them friggin' parking lights for parking damnit! </RANT> Have a nice day Francois >Day-time running lights are a conspiracy by the headlight industry to sell >more headlights. > >I can't think of anything more stupid at the moment.? If you can't see a >car in the daylight with or without it's headlights on, YOU SHOULD NOT BE >ALLOWED TO DRIVE!!!

FT: Qbus SCSI Controllers available FT

by dec.parts＠verizon.net

The following Qbus SCSI controllers are available for trade. Some combination of AD, DA, or Parallel interfaces might be acceptable. Other reasonable trades might also be considered. Will ship internationallly. If you have anything interesting enough, I might be willing to pick up all the shipping costs both ways, even internationally. mailto:dec.parts@verizon.net NOTE: Excerpt from ClassicCmp FAQ - Part 2 2.4 Can I post advertisements? Sure. As long as they're related to _classic_ computers.

HP Cxxx drive rails, & moulding plastic

I've got piles of rails I'll likely never use, > but I wouldn't know HP rails from another type... I haven't examined one in detail myself yet, but I'll try and describe them :-). They are basically black plastic strips, about the same length as the drive they attach to. They are around 1cm wide and prob. around 4mm thick. The plastic strip screws to the side of the drive, so that the drive can then slide into metal rails in the HP drive cage. At one end of the strip is a tab which locks into holes on either side of the drive cage holding the drive into position - you release the drive by pushing the two tabs in at the side and then sliding the drive out. I'll try and point the old IndyCam at one of them tonight and get a picture! Cheers, Tim. -- Tim Walls at home in Croydon - Reply to tim(a)snowgoons.fsnet.co.uk
