Some guy is unloading a bunch of VAXen on eBay: 780, 785, 750, 8650. He's
also got the Wang VS7110 that was mentioned earlier. Low opening bids,
apparently located in Waltham, MA, USA. Not related to me. No links
provided; searching eBay is easy enough.

Does anyone know of any sites that have archived software for the HP 85?
I just got the Lifutil program running on an older DOS machine and am now
able to convert, store, and send lif programs in a DOS file.
My HP-85 is interfaced to a 9121D 3.5? disk drive and I also have a 82901M
5.25? drive.
Of the math, statistics, and standard pacs I own I was only able to salvage
4 programs from the standard pac and none from the other tapes because of
eof and read problems.
Does anyone have copies of these or other HP 85 programs they could share?
I would be glad to share what I have but for now I only have these programs:
Timer, Ski, Amort, and one other.
Thanks

I live in Columbus and would like any info for any Ohio fests. (I just
saw a post about a Dayton fest.)

Just a heads up in case anyone here is interested, Ebay has what appears
to be a complete or nearly complete set of library bound Popular
Electronics. The kicker is that the descriptions says pickup in
Tennessee or mutual agreement. This seems like a *really* great buy
since it also includes 1975 (the MITS Altair issues). The auction number
is
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3014129873&category=15050.
Current price is $49.99 but was "stuck" at $49.95 for a few days with a
BIN of $75.00.
Hello
(1. If I'm in the wrong place - sorry / 2.My English is terrible I know)
I own an old PC4. It is still running well.
My question to you: Does someone know the jumper settings??????????
I searched for all jumpers on the board and found 12. One of it is pink
(JP10).
My system only got 1MB of RAM. Now I added 4 more RAM. But in the BIOS
they are disabled. How can I activate them?
Hope you can help me in that way... :)
Regards, Joerg

Yes, HP 7933 and 7935 drives.
7933 is the "fixed-pack" version of the 7935. Pretty much the same
drive but the load/unload button is blank and doesn't do anything when
you push it.
There was an earlier version of the pack for the 7933 (which was
shipped before the 7935); it wasn't as robust and there was an HP
field service program to replace those older packs with the newer ones
in drives with support contracts. Of course this involved scheduling
time when the customer could back up and restore all the data on the
drive (or volume set).

Picked up a National Instrument ISA bus GPIB board. This provide computer
interface to many lab instruments. It's up for grabs for $25 or best +
shipping. Send me your zip code so I can figure shipping.
Thanks Norm
Why do I keep getting old PC's donated to me? *sigh* Just received an epson
equity I, if anyone wants it. Also, didn't someone want the Leading Edge
500AT that I got a while back?

Hi
My Jupiter Ace has a small dynamic skeaker. I don't
recall how the graphics was done.
