dec Lab Modules

by healyzh＠aracnet.com

Do the modules look like they'd plug into a Q-Bus or Unibus backplane? If so they can't be much older than about 35 years old I believe (if that). DEC itself I was started in '58, IIRC. Joe's book might have some of the info you need, there are a whole slew of Logic Handbooks from the late 60's through the late 70's (towards the end they changed the name).

WordStar (was RE: Micro$oft Biz'droid Lusers)

by Robert_Feldman＠jdedwards.com

By the time WS for Win came out, it was hardly the same company, and certainly not an equivalent program to WS 3.3. The program I use is NewWord, which was written by some of the main WS programmers after they were fired by MicroPro and started their own company to provide a WS for Morrow computers. NW was written in assembly language like the early WS versions. http://www.petrie.u-net.com/wordstar/history/history.htm -----Original Message----- From: Jeff Hellige [mailto:jhellige@earthlink.net] Sent: Tuesday, April 23, 2002 7:33 PM To: classiccmp(a)classiccmp.org Subject: Re: Micro$oft Biz'droid Lusers (was: OT email response format) >Well, there's always WordStar for Windows or Lotus SmartSuite or >WordPerfect Office. I was always a Wordstar fan, and have a couple of versions here still, but Wordstar for Windows was horrible! Jeff

There is a reason for it, that the majority ... and the reason is completely political, which makes it garbage in my book. Not that I mean any disrespect to the Debian people; they have probably the best Linux distribution going, and I recommend it to anyone who asks. > of the Debian community agrees with, or it wouldn't be done. > Plain and I hope that's correct. Since I have probably less exposure to "the Debian community" than you, I'll take your word for it. > simple. I'm sure you are already aware of the reasons, but > reject them. I am aware of the reasons, yes, but not the reasoning. That is, I've heard the arguments, and they make no sense to me. On another note, I'll all for giving recognition to the GNU project, but I find Stallman's demanding it in that form to be tasteless. > What you label "garbage" are the very attributes that many > Debian members > hold dear.

IIRC, it was the /lib directory... Well, in fairness to her, it's possible that she didn't need one of the files in the /lib directory ;) Especially Linux distributions are bad about just installing garbage that you don't need and will never use. > ObClassicCmp: Anyone ever get OS-9/68K running on a Palm yet??? :-) Wow, I was just thinking that I might be able to get Mach3 for MIPS running on my palmtop... ;) Chris Christopher Smith, Perl Developer Amdocs - Champaign, IL /usr/bin/perl -e ' print((~"\x95\xc4\xe3"^"Just Another Perl Hacker.")."\x08!\n"); '

Let's make a deal -- attn Richard Erlacher

by acme_ent＠bellsouth.net

Hey Richard, since you are able to get such great bargains, let's hook up and both make some Big Bucks: > From: Richard Erlacher <edick(a)idcomm.com> > Of course, I do buy it whenever I see the CD's at the thrift store. Windows > typically costs $2 there. I'll take all you can get (Win 95 and higher) for $10 each. > Office 2K cost $5, last time I saw it. I'll give you $15 each for as many as you can send. > Typically, > a nice ~200 MHz Pentium box with a little (32MB) of RAM and <10GB HDD and a > small (15") monitor, plus the usual keyboard and mouse, costs around $75. $125 plus freight. I could use a couple of dozen of them. Whaddya say? Let's cash in! Glen 0/0
