I thought I would try again. Fishing for an image of the EPROM for this
pen plotter. HP part # 07585-18078, Rev A, 10-29-84 and the companion
EPROM part # 07585-18076.
Has anyone had any luck with HP support?

Does anyone have any information, documentation, engineering diagrams for
this machine?

I have the model 74 maint manual. I'll see about getting it uploaded to
www.spies.com/aek/pdf/interdata.
I have the opportunity to pick up up to 5 PDP-11/60's, but it's
the usual "make me a reasonable offer" stuff. I've already tried
the "how about $500 for a cube-van's worth" and been shot down.
Anyone know what a "reasonable offer" for this stuff is?
Anyone interested in an 11/60 FOB Ottawa/ON/Canada?
Cheers,

...and then one day you wake up, and things are just not the same
anymore...
And so it is with the 'Computer Garage'...
As of today, I am with great regret announcing the dissolution of the
major part of the Computer Garage collection of classic computers and
related materials.
First; I will detail the method in which this will be done, and then I
will detail the reasons and events that have lead up to this decision.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The dissollution and redistribution:
With the exception of between six and ten units that have particular
'history' with me, all items in the collection will be disbursed. These
items will be specified shortly.
Beginning in a few days, and proceeding over the next few months as needed
a 'catalog' page will be created on the 'Computer Garage' site. For each
item there will be a description, a thumbnail picture when practical, an
estimated shipping weight, and a date.
I have the 3.1 or 3.2 system, scriptsit, dev system, mbasic, and filePro or
Profile16. How urgent are your needs? I only have them available on 5.25"
disks (follow the directions on Frank Durda's site to connect up a 5.25"
drive). I can probably get to copying them in mid to late June. Just remind
me in a few weeks.
Anyone else collect the 6000's?

Subject: XENIX Distribution Disks
Well, I found someone with a Tandy 6000 keyboard to sell and it should be on
it's way to me tomorrow. Unfortunately, when it gets here, I will have
nothing to use it for, as I accidentally wiped XENIX completely off my
6000's internal hard disk while trying to format a secondary *external* hard
disk. I will never again assume that a program named 'hdinit' will actually
ask me *which* disk to erase, nor that it will ask for *ANY* kind of
confirmation before wiping the internal hard disk...
So I am now in the market for some Tandy XENIX distribution disks for
version 3.whatever. I don't know the exact version number of the OS that was
for the 6000 specifically. Also, should anyone have the Multiuser BASIC
disks, or Profile for XENIX disks, those were lost as well... I didn't have
any of the original disks for anything dealing with the 6000.
I'd also like to get my hands on something my system never had, whose
absence was very noticeable - the XENIX Development System, which contains
things like the C compiler, mail, and many other things I don't consider
optional in a UNIX-based system.
Any help is greatly appreciated...

Check out the wierd (micro? terminal?) with the monitor in an adjustable
gimbal cradle, almost like the old Philco Predicta TVS that the retro
freaks all think is the Icon of 50s Tech...
Also an HP something sitting on a desk with a paper tape reader in it..
34 photographs, be sure to check them all out...
