>Ya, hi, I'm interested (Token Ring Buff)
If you are a token ring buff... I still have the following available for
the cost of shipping (from 07450, NJ).
11 - IBM, Auto 16/4 Token Ring, ISA, RJ45 DB9
08 - IBM, Auto 16/4 Token Ring, ISA, RJ45
13 - IBM, 16/4, ISA, RJ45 DB9
08 - IBM, 16/4 Token Ring, Microchannel, DB9
04 - IBM, 16/4, ISA, DB9
03 - IBM, Turbo 16/4 Token Ring, ISA, RJ45 DB9
01 - Intel, M#770400331 16/4, ISA, RJ45 DB9
01 - Madge, Smart 16/4 AT Plus Ringnode, ISA, RJ45 DB9
That should be correct (it's what I have saved as a text file that I
printed my inventory sheets from... the actual boxes they are in are
under a pile of monitors and I'm not digging them out unless someone
wants something).
The cards are untested. They were given to me in a large box of assorted
parts pulled during a mass ethernet migration (and other upgrades, there
were things like 2400 -14.4 modems as well). I was not involved in the
pulling, so I can't say what the status was before they were pulled. I
don't have any reason to believe they are bad, but I honestly have no
clue about them. (All the parts I did want worked fine, so I would
imagine the Token Ring cards work as well)
I don't want ANY of them... so take one, take them all... just get them
out of here.

You can down the necessary control panels off the Internet, but I have
never been able to get through to my ISP. I haven't got an Ethernet box.
Problem with Ethernet for the LCII is that it takes the socket you need for
the Apple IIe card.

It would be more useful to be to be able to connect a S6 Mac to the
Internet from any phone socket which is why I was trying to do it dial up.
It is has to go via another machine, then there isn't any advantage.
Obviously you can ethernet another mac to your iMac.

I am not sure what this expression means. I connected the Apple games
socket to the BBC Micro User port and used an adapted version of the RS232
serial program which is in the "Red Book"
A friend of mine has two R4400 Indigos and some extra SGI odds and ends that he'd like to sell. The first system is a doozy, it's LOADED! The blue sled that he mentions lets you set the SCSI address without removing the drive from the system, unlike the standard black sleds. His name, E-mail address and location are at the bottom of the message. Here's the details of the systems:

Ah... so you are the one that won it. I don't feel as bad about not
having gotten there first, now that I know it at least went to someone
that will give it a good home (and not some "dealer" that will strip it
and try to sell the peices for $100's each)

Sellam,
IIRC, it is possible to have the brightness adjusted so that you can see the raster, but
the contrast adjusted so that you cannot see the text.
If the contrast is the knob that is frozen or broken...then that might be the problem.
Strange, these pots tend to get a little dirty over time, but I've never seen one get that
bad off. Maybe they were exposed to some kind of contaminant. I've got 3 Model III's,
and the worst problem I've had was a bad VRAM chip.
Also, if you do have a scope, I remember there was a decent test point where the video
data can be tapped on it's way to the video circuitry. That way you can tell if it's a
computer problem or a video problem.
Good luck,
-Frank
Hi all
Does anyone have a copy of the manual for this QBUS SMD controller?
We need to access the onboard diags/formatter. I believe there is an RS232
port on board (but do not have the pinouts), but I think we could also
access it through the console.
Thanks in anticipation
Kevin
Hi.
I'm looking at picking up an ATT 3b2 to complement my 7300. I know
the 3b2 has a different CPU type (WE3102?) as opposed to the 7300's
68010. Are they binary-compatible? Specifically, can I use the same
install and program media for both?
Doc
Went to a local computer store and their discount table was full of old tapes
and media, mostly new factory sealed. I got:
DC2120XL XIMAT
DC2080 RHOMAT
3m drive upgrade kit with 2120 XL ximat and arcadia dos backup app
DC2060 KAPPAMAT irwin 40
128 meg optical disks.
There was also other tapes of varying types and sizes, DC600,. lots of
syquest 88 (are they backwards compatible with the syquest 44?) , 6120(?) and
so on and so forth. If anyone needs some of these tapes, message me and we
can strike a deal. Now I can use my IBM 6157 tape drive, and my PS/2's tape
backup and M/O drive.
