If I were to make a wild guess, I would say that it is
a "BAR CODE" controller from an old point-of-sale
system manufactured by ICL Retail Systems of Dallas.

Hi Roger,
I saw you had posted something about a Quantum Lightning Drive. I have an
Apple branded Quantum ProDrive LT SCSI. You have any idea how to set the
scsi number on these things?
Thanks--if you can help.

Hi, everyone!
I've become the new owner of a nice MicroVAX 3100, and I'm trying to learn
more about it. I had a few hardware-related questions, and I'm hoping that
someone here can give me some insight.
This is what I know about the system so far -- it's got three RZ26 drives
in it, although one appears to have died, since SHOW DEV only reports two
installed. If I were to replace the failed one, do I need to get my hands
on another Digital drive, or will any SCSI drive work with VMS? Also, I've
heard that some vaxes (or was it VMS, or both?) have limits on the size of
the drive it will work with...what would work best in this system?
My VAX came with VMS 5.5-2 installed, but I'd like to go ahead and get the
hobbyist license and move to 7.2. Will my little VAX handle it? It's got
16 megs of memory and about 2 gigs of hard disk space (unless I can coax
that other RZ26 into working...) Also, I don't have a CDROM, or a place to
put it in the case. Again, if I get an external SCSI case, does it or the
CDROM I put in it need to be specific to the VAX?
Thanks in advance for your help! I'm really looking forward to putting
this machine back into service...
Cheers,
Chris Cureau
While out looking today I found a Super Famicom with one controller for
$6.96 and the lady in the back room was telling me that this was the second
one they had sold. She also said that she had tossed the ac adapter for it.
Does anyone know if I can use a regular SNES ac adapter with it?
Hi all,
Found a little something in a "lucky dip" so to speak with some other boards I "needed" Any one have any idea what the hell it is?? Follow the link:

No .html, no popups. You can then look at the two .jpgs

I've picked up a crap load of early IBM software and manuals in the last
two weeks and got another load today. I got some neat stuff (MS-DOS 1.0,
CP/M-86 v1.0) but I've got way more than I have room for so I'm selling a
bunch of it off. I have a LOT of technical reference manuals, all kinds of
compilers, lots of early IBM software and more. Most of it appears to be
unused. I think I'm going to keep the PC Hardware Maintenance and Service
manual since I have an early PC that I'm hanging onto, I haven't decided
about the CPM=86 and DOS V1.0 yet. See
<http://cgi6.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewSellersOtherItems&userid=rigdonj>
and keep checking back, I've got lots more to post.
