OT - Warren Zevon

by healyzh＠aracnet.com

I think Warren Zevon has come up here a couple times. I figured I'd let any fans that don't already know, know the bad news. I know my day is ruined now. Zane September 12, 2002 Warren Zevon has inoperable cancer Sep. 12, 2002 "Werewolves of London" rocker Warren Zevon, the singer-songwriter whose satire, cynicism and wit went on display in the 1978 album "Excitable Boy," has been diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer, his publicist said Thursday. Zevon, 55, was told of the terminal diagnosis last month by doctors and he is spending time with his grown children, spokeswoman Diana Baron said. The entertainer lives in Los Angeles. "He has been diagnosed with lung cancer which has advanced to an untreatable stage," she said, adding he's writing and recording as many songs as possible and will be in the recording studio next week. Zevon said in a statement, "I'm OK with it, but it'll be a drag if I don't make it till the next James Bond movie comes out." (AP) -- | Zane H.

Univac rescue

by xds_sigma7＠hotmail.com

I bet my 4381 weighs more... Scariest experience with it is a tie between it teetering on the liftgate, and when it rolled away toward someone's car in the parking lot... Thankfully I managed to steer it away, barely! Will J _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com

Turbo Pascal Toolbox: Numerical Methods

by djenner＠earthlink.net

In rummaging through the storage closet, I found most of my old Turbo Pascal (for DOS) floppies, but I didn't find those for the Turbo Pascal Toolbox: Numerical Methods, Version 4.0, IBM Version (1987). I found the book, and it says that there are three floppies, which are probably 5.25" 360KB disks. So, does anyone have copies of these disks they'd be willing to part with or share with a bona fide owner? Thanks, Dave -- David C. Jenner djenner(a)earthlink.net

Anybody know anything about the TI TMS 32010 DSP chip?

by jbdigriz＠dragonsweb.org

Joe <rigdonj(a)cfl.rr.com> wrote .. > I picked up a machine (TI TDS) that I thought was a developement system > and it has a TMS 32010 pod on it. > > Joe I'm only vaguely familiar with the system with the separate 32010 pod. There was the original TMS32010 EVM that has the DSP, TMS9995 host processor, dual serial ports, audio tape interface, EPROM programming socket, and a 40-pin emulation cable. This would be part number RTC/EVM320A-03. Been looking for one, with software, for some time. What is the model number of yours? I have a bunch of TI DSP literature from the 32010 period and I'll try to look it up. This sounds somewhat later, though. jbdigriz

MasPar, anyone?

by xds_sigma7＠hotmail.com

Scratch "may have" and replace with "was"... Masscomp, or Massachusetts Computer Corporation, made multibus machines running RTU (Real Time UNIX). Not really sure why Perki-Data bought them (thats the common term for Perkin-Elmer Data Systems, since that was really Interdata after being bought by P-E).. Then they spun all the computer stuff off as Concurrent Computer Corp., who at some point accquired Harris's computer division also.. I have an Interdata and multiple P-E/Concurrents...

EIA 232 vs. 422, Color Computers (was Re: Serial floppy drive s)

by Lee.Davison＠merlincommunications.com

>> similar. 422 by the way is specified to go almost 1000 feet, while >> with 232 you are lucky to get over 10 feet. Regards - Mike > That's not true. Serial cable can go for a good many feet before > the signal breaks down (someone should pipe in with actual data ;) 450 feet at 9600 bps through multi strand sheilded cable. This was between two buildings and ran through a drain to get under a road. 19200 bps was tried but was error prone. dropping the speed to 9600 bps worked.
