I was wondering if you had and could send me a copy of the boot software for the Toshiba T1200, I have been given 1 to repair but that seem the only problem, also if you could tell me how to get into the Bios, I was told to press Esc when 1st turned on but this doesn't seem to work...
Confused
R. Auty
Hi all,
I have recently acquired an HP9000 C100 workstation. It came without any
memory in it. I hooked up a PS/2 keyboard and a multisync monitor. The
video board is in slot 3, which is were I believe it belongs in this
machine. When I power it up, there is no display of any sort. Is this
normal for not having any memory, or is something dead?
Thanks,
Jon

I think I took a part-time job in Hell today. A non-profit corp who
funds its computers-for-children program by "salvaging" donated
equipment. That means selling most of it by the pound. I'll be working
for trade, for a while.
If anybody wants, there is, for its worth as scrap:
1 Sun 2/120 system unit. Looks intact.
2 AS/400 cabinets, I _think_ 9404 models. One intact, one missing
an expansion board (or bulkhead covers). Too dark to read the
badges & labels. More details tomorrow
1 IBM rack - Says it's part of a phone system. Behind a large
deteriorating box, so all I could see was an 8" floppy drive
unit, and what looked like a 3/4" tape drive.
2 Pallets PS/2 Model 77. Probably 40-60 machines
1 Pallet PS/2 full towers. Pallets were already shrinkwrapped, so
I couldn't further ID them.
Both lots of PS/2 equipment may already be gone.
Not headed for the crusher, 'cause "That's VINTAGE stuff!!"
2 Large (42"x42"x42") deteriorating cardboard boxes of Tandy &
Commodore equipment. Unsorted, and not well packed. OK, not
packed at all, in any real sense. He knows it's worth money,
but he ain't sure what it is.
The main problem is that I don't have the wherewithal to even ship
anything bigger than the model 77s. I can probably get the bigger stuff
put on hold, but if you want it, you'll need to arrange pickup &
shipping. His prices are literally by the pound.
On the Brighter Side:
*I* will be making out like the proverbial fat rat.

I don?t have the time for this beast right now and it has to make room
for my Rackmount Onyx anyway, so...
I have an CISC AS/400 9406 something to give away, I do not know which
exact model, this was printed on the rack which I didn?t take due to
weight reasons (boy these AS/400 rackmount enclosures are _heavy_... we
needed four people just to move one _empty_ rack. They put in some really
thick lead plates in 'em so there was no chance a rack could tilt wherever
you put your stuff). Maybe someone recognizes the model from the pics
below. It comes with two #9336 disk modules, one 8" floppy drive #9331,
one Infowindow Terminal, several SCSI cables, a little bit Twinax stuff as
well as one meter of mixed documentation and then some more. I also have
the keys for the machine. No system console though, but I guess this ain?t
a big problem. No part numbers are printed on the two CPU modules. There
may be the option to get an AS/400 9 track (? - big, heavy, I can make a
photo if someone?s interested and it is still available) drive with it,
too. Now for the bad news: Neither is OS/400 included nor is it
installed. The disks have been completely wiped before disassembly. The
company I got this from is still searching for the original media, but I
doubt they still have them and so do they. The machine was in perfect
working order before disassembly last year and has been carefully
transported to my home, but of course, no warranty included. So, if you
don?t have access to OS/400 for such a machine (legal aspects aside ;-)
this thing is going to be your new boat anchor. Anyway, I don?t want to
put this thing on ebay, or worse, into the dumpster. Hopefully there?s
someone who has more use for this than me right now. Of course, it?s
free for local pickup (only!) - the machine is located in Bochum /
Germany. If interested, contact me at andreas(a)pisec.de - I will gladly
answer any question as far as I can, but please bear in mind that my
experience with AS/400 stuff is very limited. Ah yes, I will only give
this away complete.
Some pics:

The S/36 next to the beast stays here ;)
BTW: I?m still looking for one of these top plastic parts (with the
nifty Motorola logo on it) for my Motorola MVME197LE, an SGI Indy power
supply (this one badly!) and 8" SSP disks for my 5362 S/36. Anyone?
Best

I'm starting to reach the saturation point as well. I'm getting married in
June and Judy wanted me to move to her house. As a result all the computer
stuff (1.5 bedroom's worth+partial garage) all had to move to climate
controlled storage to join an existing collection already in storage. It took
several trips and due to time constraints, everything is in disarray and some
things got damaged in the process. PS/2 models stack well, apple ][ series do
not! My original plan was to keep 2 of every model, but I've many PS/2 models
in various configurations that it just doesnt work as well as 5 OSI C1Ps with
various unique mods. Right now, I sneaked a few IBM server 95s as well as an
Ultimedia unit to use. I do keep books and mags though for reference. I've
simplified a little through sales and ebay but there's still too mucn and
they dont build houses with basements around here.

I was looking for a three-prong adapter at my in-laws house last
week so I could plug my laptop in to the socket (the laptop power
cord is grounded but all the wall outlets are two-prong). I found
the adapter, but I also found an old Commodore calculator, along
with the box. The packing material in the box is gone, but the
box is in pretty good shape. I haven't tried a battery to see
if the calculator works, but even so the calculator is small and
I won't have any problems finding room for it.

I don't know the power rating. The compartments look to me like they
might be for small-ish gel-cells of some sort. about 2"x2"x1" -- the
connector is a two prong square thing. :) They're supposed to be
rechargable (of course...) Beyond that, I have no idea.
