I don't suppose you have access to a MicroVAX? I always do this under VMS,
and then FTP the data over to a UNIX system. Unfortuantly I'm not sure how
you can do this under RT-11, however, I'd guess that at a minimum you'd need
a RL02 drive and pack to hold the image for transfer over the the PC.

Jeez, Sellam, I thought I was the only one who got suckered on that deal!
I got mine around '64 (I think they were $1.99), and man, was I crushed to
see how little they resembled the drawing in the ad :<(

That can be disabled by the application. Disabling PrtSc
would require hooking the OS on every machine running notes.
But if somehow they were able to do even that, a program
like VMware running notes would do a nice job of making
a screen capture possible.
Failing that, someone who wanted to get the word out could
simply photograph the screen.

Since I've seen several people express this same sentiment,
what exactly is the problem with SCART? My only experience
of SCART has been to connect my TV to various input sources
(a VCR, a camcorder and a satellite receiver) and for that
it seems to work reasonably well.

Hey Louis, which place here are you referring to?

Hello:
Can someone tell me or point me towards a site with
information on the power requirements for a HP C19
printing calculator?
I've got one which I'd like to sell, but I'd like to
see if it works or not first. It appears to be in
decent shape, tho the carrying case is getting ratty.
I see on the back it says "5V" and "1W", but the
connector (I assume for a AC adapter) isn't labeled,
and it has no power pack.
Thanks in advance,
Frank

Hehe, there goes the last VAX out of my workplace, and right into
my garage. And its a 6610! That means I will need to add in a few
processors, but there is my NVAX. Much work is before me. I should
get Ultrix 4.2 ported to it starting with the 6000-400 files. It
can't be so hard after the 6000-500 runs... We'll see. Does
anyone have the processor internal registers for the KA66A?
With some luck we can drop in just a very small set of kernel files
that can be reused under Ultrix 4.5 binary. For NetBSD it will be a
little harder to replicate all the missing stuff. I think I will want
to set up a fast cross compiling or native VAX box for that first.
That also means that a 6400 will become free on relatively short
notice. This one goes to Micheal McCabe, if he wants it (?) I am a
bit reluctant yet to convert the 6400 to a -600 so quickly after
I barely set it up. I guess I will take some time to actually do
the conversion. But in a matter of 4 weeks after I took her home,
I should probably get rid of that extraneous then 64x0 cabinet.
(the 'x' depends a little on how I will distribute all the CPUs.)
Also, there are the XMI and VAXBI backplanes (with some defect,
but certainly not everything on both of them) free for the taking.
They aren't claimed yet and that means I will decompose those
shortly.
cheers,
-Gunther

I was a slower learner. I sent of several times for the
items on the backs of cereal boxes. I can still remember
the propeller powered boat that when let loose would
dive into the water and sink. The baking powder powered sub did
work but was a lot smaller than the picture lead one
to believe. Anyway, I liked the sea monkeys.

Even then there should be a way IMO. There are a few programmes that allow
you to take a "screen shot", which means they produce a (.bmp .jpg...whatever)
file that shows what you had on your screen when you press some key. The one
I have was part of the Corel family...unfortunately, I haven't used it a
long time and I'm not home now to check its name. There could also be something
like this out as freeware, but I'm not sure on this.
Even if it's a bit complicated, this would at least allow you to print the
contents of those manuals the original viewer doesn't want you to. Legality of
such operations is another problem; I do not want to encourage illegal
actions. But I also don't want to see perfectly repairable appliances go to the
dumpster. Choose your way...
