Nah... too broke to afford shipping anything else around.
But thanks for reminding me that I have to take a drive up to you to pick
up the remaining "stuff" (junk is a little harsh of a word, but may fit
some of it better).
We'll have to hash out a good time off list.

I am cleaning house and will scrap the below items
if nobody wants them: (free for pickup in greater
Detroit area)
1. SCO Unix 3.2.4 All manuals media and boxes with license.
2. SCO Xenix 2.3.4 GT (?) can't remember exactly about p/n
3. SCO OpenServer 5.02 with 2 licenses.
4. SCO Unixware 2.1 (?) if I recall
5. SCO Unixware 7
Items 1 and 2 are fully licensed with books media etc.
Items 3-5 are the educational promos with just 2 licenses.
6. Sparc 2 with 128MB RAM,
Weitek PowerUp (80MHz)
GX framebuffer
500MB HD
needs new Sun NVRAM or battery (TOY)
I currently program it if I power down via below procedure:
e.g. modify the hostid of an IPX to be 57c0ffee and the
ethernet address to be 08:00:20:c0:ff:ee. At the OpenBoot
monitor prompt (ok)
1 0 mkp
55 1 mkp
8 2 mkp
0 3 mkp
20 4 mkp
c0 5 mkp
ff 6 mkp
ee 7 mkp
0 8 mkp
0 9 mkp
0 a mkp
0 b mkp
c0 c mkp
ff d mkp
ee e mkp
0 f 0 do i idprom@ xor loop f mkp

I'm surprised Chris hasn't asked about those HP LJIIs yet. There's a
IIID here waiting for him. Still. :)
Or did he reply privately?

I spent last week in San Jose for an off-topic class at Sun. While I was
down there I spent more time than was probably healthy scouring the as-is
shelves for lost software. This is a partial list of what I came up with.
Who knows, maybe I came up with something somebody's been looking for.
All software is on QIC tape except as noted.
* UNIX SYSTEM V RELEASE 3.1.1
FOR AT&T 3B4000 and 3B15 VERSION 1 COMPUTERS
ROOT FILE SYSTEM; BOOT BLOCK
DOMESTIC RELEASE
(9-track tape)
* iRMX III Rel 2.1
* HP Network Peripheral Interface for SunOS 4.1.1 on Sun SPARCsystems
Host Software rev A.02.00 dated 0592
* Interphase Network Coprocessor NC400 rel 1.4.2
* Motorola System Software Gold for Sys. V/88 R32V3.2
* Motorola System Software 88K Unix R4 Binary System Tape
* Motorola System Software DeltaPRO SDS Source R4V4.3 88K
* Motorola System Software DeltaWindows MOTIF 1.3.1 Source
* Motorola System Software DeltaWindows X11 1.3.3 Source
* Motorola System Software R32V3.2 NSE Object
* Motorola System Software NCDware 3.1 for R40
* Motorola System Software 88K UNIX R4 BOS Source

UNIX System III Ver 3.0.5A April 1985
* INFORMIX 4-GL ver 1.10.00A
for ALTOS Series 2000, Xenix v5.2a
maybe this will help somebody.

Hi,
This is Ross -- just saying hello to the group.
I'm a software engineer by profession, but an 8-bit hacker
by avocation. While I'm especially interested in 6502
hardware, Z80, 8080, and even 1802 stuff is also of
keen interest.
It's partly nostalgia, and partly that these old systems
are understandable by mere mortals with a reasonable amount
of effort. I love how one could get a book or two and know
everything you need to program one of those old machines,
vs. today when the number of standards and interfaces has
gone spinning out of control of the individual hobbyist,
at which point it becomes more "work" than "play".
I still think studying those older micros is a perfect
way to truly understand the principles involved in
computing without all the distractions of multi-level
caching, out-of-order execution, branch prediction,
branch delay slots, etc. etc. Once grounded in those
basic principles, you can build the rest. IMHO.
Currently, my stable of hardware includes:
1) A nearly pristine KIM-1, currently serving
as a 24-hour clock. I posted some "ready-to run"
software and scans of user manuals, and a few
songs played by KIM, etc.
at http://www.learnmicros.com.
2) Commodore 128. I like this because it can
be used to learn CP/M and Z80 ML
as well as hack at the '02 and C64. :)
3) Apple IIe. Nice accessible hardware to hack with.
4) TI99/4A. Anyone want for the cost of shipping?
I just can't fit this one into my collection very well,
and there are only a few cartridges for it.
5) Daryl Rictor's SBC2. I got that SBC tweaked to
run at the blazing speed of 6 Mhz running a variant
of BASIC called EHBASIC. This is my current timesink.
A 6502 at 6Mhz is not too shabby. :)
Anyways, holas again to the group and hope you
all are having great summers.
