Hey if anyone is interested in the HP 9000 Series 200 and 300s you NEED
this book. This book lists ALL of the cards and peripherals can be used on
the systems and explains how to configure many of them. You don't see this
manual very often and it's dammed handy to have!

Joe,
I just found a message you wrote back in September mentioning a selection
of old track tape drives. I run a computer department on the services side
of the Oil industry and we specialise in maintaining and transcribing data
>from these older types of media. We have almost everything used in our
industry from analogue tapes onwards. Anyway, I am always trying to find
21, 7 and 9 track tape drives, especially old IDT's. Would you still have
the drives you mentioned in your email? If so I'd like to know if you'd be
prepared to let them go to a good home where they can spin tapes again?
Best regards,
Jan.

Hello. I've recently acquired a set of seven Xenix 286 v.1 manuals
plus the OS diskettes + the Development system diskettes. These boots,
even when I was not sure about its state. I should like to do one
copy of them in form of virtual diskettes, in a form that permits
use them with Bochs or similar emulator if possible.
Problems:
* Winimage (soft to do virtual plain copies of disks) can't read the
disks.
* The dd method under Unix/Linux give me errors. I should need to know
the blocksize of the Xenix diskettes and its density (it don't appears
in the labels). In appeareance the blocksize needed is 2048, but using
this command:
dd if=/dev/fd0 of=xenix1_i.dsk bs=2048 conv=noerrors
...returns me one message like this:
3+1 records copied
/dev/fd0: error reading...
6+2 records copied
...
Suggestions ?
Thanks in advance
Sergio
It's not as powerful as it could be (I'll be refining it now and then as
time permits) but the search feature I just added to the VCF Link Library
should make it easier to wade through the links:
http://www.vintage.org/links.php
My goal is to add some sort of indexing that takes into account the
contents of each listed website so that searches will dig deeper into the
actual contents of the sites and pull more relevant results rather than by
just acting on their titles. I'm sure I can achieve this easily by
utilizing Google so I'll be looking into that later.
Bug reports (there shouldn't be any), comments, suggestions, questions,
etc., welcome.

That shouldn't be necessary. Any half-decent autoresponder will keep
track of who it has responded to, and not send any more after the
first, to any given correspondent. Mind you, any half-decent
autoresponder will not append the entire message it's responding to :-)

I've completely re-engineered and improved the VCF Link Library:
http://www.vintage.org/links.php
It's a bit easier to navigate and includes more indexes for finding
specialized links or sections of links. In the future I'll also add a
localized search feature. In the meantime, I want to focus on adding more
links and culling the dead links that are currently in the database.
So, if you've got a vintage computing website you'd like to promote and it
isn't already listed, add it to the Library by going here:
http://www.vintage.org/addlink.php
I'll be running a robot to automatically check all the links and flag the
ones that are 404 for removal. If someone knows of an already existing
tool then please let me know about it. I'm pretty sure my Perl Cookbook
has a routine for this.
Anyway, I've put a lot of work into the Link Library and think it's a
great resource, and I hope you do too. It's also a way to improve your
search engine rankings since the VCF is highly ranked itself. Adding a
link to your site couldn't hurt.
I'm interested in hearing any suggestions for improvements.
