Well, Harold Washington College is at it again this morning. However, I have
saved something that someone here might want: a Digital Prioris HX 5100
MP/2. Don't know much about it, and it looks to be less than 10 years old,
but it is DEC. Appears to be clean and complete, except it is missing the
left side panel. Has four FR-PCWVR-AZ 4.0GB drives. Free for pickup _only_
in the Chicago Loop (35 E. Wacker). Email me at
robert_feldman(at)jdedwards.com if you want it.

IIRC, hospital grade receptacles must exert more pressure to prevent
sparks, which would be a bad thing to have around oxygen tanks.

Hey, Doc - off list to save everyone's bandwidth... What do you think to an
RS/6000 E30? I'm going to have a look at one tomorrow for not_much_money. I
have 2 questions - is it MCA or PCI?
And is the memory proprietary - or just standardish stuff?
Thanks in anticipation of your wise word :)

It's probably ok that they didn't know, but it's inexcusable for
them to be so terribly stupid.
It reminds me of an episode at Worst Buy here in town -- something
like this:
Him: What kind of TV are you looking for?
Me: Something smaller than 20". Otherwise it doesn't matter as
long as it has composite video in.
Him: Component video is still pretty expensive...
Me: (wondering why he's telling me this) _Composite_ video.
Him: You probably can't get it on a television that small, either.
Me: Um... that's fine, I just want normal composite in -- like this
(pointing to composite input on a tv)
Him: That's not component video in...
> They suck so much that I'd rather go to FRY'S!
No fry's around here. Most people are stuck with Staples -- on
the other hand, there are a couple of local shops that are ok for
most things.

For those who asked, I put up my A/UX install notes on

YMMV.

This is all original as it came from Compaq; I dont think I ever even
took the CDs out of their plastic sleeves. Will ship it in the same box
that Compaq shipped it in. I got it from Austin Energy here in town (the
electric company); they'd gotten it in after they retired all their VAXen.
Entire package order number is QA-YL48A-W8.
FS/FT/whatever; I just need to get it out of here and dont want to eBay it.

I have one. I can take a look at what it does and who made it etc. There are
quite a few of them available from at least one source right now.
I picked up a range of various test equipment for PDP 11 related uses about
3 weeks ago.
If anyone is interested, I could make a list.

Hey Mike --
Thanks for stopping by the shop. It was really good chatting with you
again (even if Joe and I tend to get involved in our usual gripe sessions
;>)

Yes, we junkies always encourage the return of "lost sheep" by giving them

Nice work! Is there usually *this* much good stuff at hamfests? Not that
I've been to one lately (being a slave to the shop) but ones I've attended
in the past had little in the way of computer-related goodies.

Okay, was that a Timex Sinclair TS1000 or a Sinclair ZX81? What was the
condition and what else was included (manuals, box, ps)? And what was the
asking price?
Anyway, I'm glad you had fun in O-Town. Next time you're heading this way
drop me a line.
