Would this model IBM monitor do me any good?

by fernande＠internet1.net

I'm looking at IBM monitors on Ebay. Would a model 9504 monitor, at .11 dot pitch do me any good? It is a fixed frequency mono (grey scale?) monitor. I'd want to use it with an RS6000 7013-530 or a PS/2 77 running OS/2 Warp 3. The 77 is currently equipted with an XGA2 card, but that could be changed, I supppose. Chad Fernandez Michigan, USA

pics of SGI SIMMs

by rschaefe＠gcfn.org

Here's a few JPEGs of an SGI 4D/35 SIMM-- it's either a 2MB or an 8MB SIMM, I don't know which. The 4MB SIMMs have only half the RAM chips installed. Oh-- http://www.yubyub.net/ratio might be helpful. At least I didn't have to put it in a followup! Bob

Interesting QBUS Card RDC-16

by dave＠naffnet.org.uk

I have just received an interesting QBUS card from Germany after an EBAY auction. It is a quad card that is a MSCP RAM-disk (16MB), which additionally gives 4MB of QBUS Memory (well, it could scarcely give any more, since that's all Q-22 can address). This beastie is the RDC-16 from See First Technology, and came with a manual dated May 1988. According to this document, this card can have its capacity extended with up to two RDE-32 cards (you guessed it - 32MB each), with these cards being connected in a similar way to LMI - via a ribbon cable. So, if anyone happens to have a RDE-32 just kicking around then I'm looking for a couple... This card is even bootable, with the correct jumper settings, although the talk is of one extension board and MicroVMS:- I somehow doubt that OVMS 7.2 would fit too well! Anyway, the card is alive and well in the MVIII. As an aside. does anyone know what processors the Clearpoint Research DCME M30/16MB cards work with? Cheers, Dave.
