Anybody familar with a "Technical magic 8S" card? I found several of
them in a DEC system. They're double width cards and have eight AMI S1602P
LSI ICs on them. Chip Directory says that the 1602s are UARTs.

Does anyone know of any free benchmark test software for the PC?
Preferably something that runs in DOS mode that I can boot off a floppy
(to avoid having to boot into Windows).
I have two PCs that I want to benchmark to determine which one has the
better performance for my new web server.

Hello Wayne
Excuse the email out of the blue! I have just seen your reply to a post asking
about disks for the Osborne Executive. For reference, the URL is :-
http://www.classiccmp.org/pipermail/cctalk/2002-August/004906.html
I am also in need of these images, I have one of these computers but no disks
at all. Can you help me please?
Thanks

Kaypro made a computer that they released after their portables but before
their IBM clone. It was in a flat metal case that was shorter and smaller
than their AT case. I can't remember what it was called. I've only seen one
reference to it but the website is gone. Does anyone remember the system
that I'm thinking of? I think (?) that it was an 8086 system but it might
have been a single board Z80.
Hi Chris,
I am a grad student at UC Berkeley and I could use one of your
387sx-16's on a project I am working on. If you still have some and can
spare one, I am in the mechanical engineering department at:
Attn: R. Steger
2168 Etcheverry Hall
Berkeley, CA 94720
Thanks,
Ryan

You're right. The hyphen between the '1' and the 'A' was shift down to
the bottom of the line, making the '1' look like an 'L'. I thought I saw AD0LA
rather than AD01-A.
Mine appears to be different from the one pictured on that webpage.

In any case my AD01-A has quite a different card layout than the AD01-D
in that manual.

I'm seeking any manuals for the Synapse Computer Corporation N+1 computer
circa 1985.
If you've got any please do contact me directly.
I've got a bounty out for these!

Hi
Use the bigger iron you have with excess flux.
If there is too much solder, use wick or sucker to
remove excess. With the flux, the solder will not tend
to bridge.
