I am trying (so far in vain) to find keyboards and monitors for a Corvus
concept. I have
three concepts - but no monitors and only 1 keyboard!
Got any ideas where I might look? Got an old one in your garage?

Also, need a complete set of rails for the 11/34 cpu... or... can I use 11/44
rails for it?
--
34's use the same Chassis-Trak slides that were used on RK05's.
44 rails are quite unique, and are actually hard to find, since
most systems were sold in corporate cabs which had another unique
set of top extending slides.
I can program almost anything there is and was to program...
If nobody closer then me can help you - send me the code

Onderwerp: Help with a eprom
Would anybody with an eprom burner be willing to burn a 27c128 rom (I have
the
code) to update an apple scsi card rom from revision B to C so it will work
with my IIgs?

You need to learn to read "marketing speak". They did specify that it was
the first built AND SOLD by Apple.
If Woz gave away the first built, that doesn't make it the first build
AND SOLD.
Its all in the twist of marketing :-)
(Of course, that doesn't mean I believe it anyway... I've personally come
to expect that 90% of what anyone selling an items says is probably BS)

I should have mentioned that. A friend of mine is a REAL pack-rat. He
has books that he's had in storage for many years with no damage. He uses
tomato boxs from the grocery store. They're fairly small so they're easy to
handle when filled with books and they're sturdy. He puts a heavy duty
plastic trash bag in the box and then puts his books inside that and then
closes the bag and seals it with a twist tie. So far we haven't seen any
moisture or bug damage to any of them. (We've opened up at least 100 boxs
and put them up on shelves.) A couple of years ago he gave me a box full of
NorthStar manuals that had been in storage for 12 or 13 years. They were
all completely undamaged when when I opened them up.

Thanks so much! This looks like just the right stuff to get me going. I'll
give a try as soon as I get a chance today.
Now, as to S/36 information for the beginner... truth is the publicly
accessible material's a little thin on the ground. It pre-dates IBMs
electronic documentation distribution. Being old hard copy, a lot of it's
been pulped at this point. I've managed to assemble a pretty fair bookshelf
of hardcopy, and I've scanned two of the manuals to at least a readable
level. They're big though. The Operator's manual for ht 5362/60 I scanned
is 100 MB. You're very welcome to it of course. That's why I scanned it in
the first place. But I'll need an ftp site or some such to send it to. I do
have the operator's manual for the 5364 and some other goodies, but I got
them so recently nothing's scanned yet. As a quick entre you might want to
read the AS/400 reference for the S/36 environment (IBM Bookshelf:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr/BOOKS/QBKAUR00/CCONTENTS?SHEL…).
That's the compatibility mode they continue to support. The link takes you
to the earliest version I could find. It should give you a good intro to
the command structures and concepts. Or you could look at the documentation
for Advance System/36. I don't know if they sell that at more, but that was
basically an AS/400 running S/36 with some enhancements (IBM Bookshelf:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr/Shelves/qbja8n03) . I don't
know how close AS/36 and S/36 are. If those links aren't helpful, let me
know a the location of your favorite bit-bucket, and I'll pass on what I've
scanned so far.
Thanks again,
Colin

Jim,
Sorry but I can't help you with the 6809 pod.
But if you intend to do it away I am very interested.
I used it for years on Z80 development.
Actually I have one, but very incomplete - no pods, no doc...
I have no problems in paying shipping cost in advance (I know it's heavy)
gr.

Onderwerp: Free: HP 64000
Hello:
I was searching Google for anyone interested in a HP 64000
that I adopted (more like left on my porch :) and came a
cross an newgroup posting you had made and was wondering
if you could help me out.
The system was given to me under the pretext that it would
come with a a 6809 pod, but alas it only has a Z80 Pod and
something like an 8047 Pod. It did come with all the
docs. plus extra components.
Do you know where I could find a 6809 Pod for this beatie.
If you do know where I can get a 6809 pod for free or very
cheap, I would appreciate knowing about it. If not, do
you know of anyone interested in taking the system for
free. I live in the Seattle area, so it's free to anyone
willing to pick it up. Thanks!

Found this while searching around..I think he discounted the price to

(A) Apple 1 computer in case.
(B) Five (5) original manuals, a complete set, as of this time I
know of no one else that has a complete set of manuals.
(C) Three (3) original Apple 1 cassette tapes from Apple Computer
Co.
(D) The SWTPC PR-40 printer. This printer itself is an antique and
hard to find. It is unique to the Apple 1 computer because of an article
in InterFace Age magazine, Oct 1976 by Steven Jobs.
(E) The InterFace Age magazine, dated Oct 1976.
(F) The Nuts & Volts magazine, July 2002 issue. Has an article and
pictures on the Apple 1 computer.
(G) A+, an Apple magazine, dated Jan 1987. The 10 year anniversary
of the Apple II but has pictures of the Apple 1. Done with Steve
Wozniak.
(H) The Brief Case, pictures on web site.
(I) Last but not least, the postcard that was signed by Steve
Wozniak, a prized possession.
The cost of the Apple 1 system is thirty thousand ($30,000) US
dollars. You must be able to pick up the system or arrange to have it
picked up. Other conditions apply but will discuss with the buyer before
agreeing on a deal for the Apple 1 system. I reserve the right to refuse
any offer. If more that one party is interested, highest offer will get
the Apple 1 system provided all conditions are meet.

I might have a cable or two like that for the Mac. I have some that are
15 pin like the Mac RGB connector, and go to a 9 pin like a CGA
connector. I don't know what they go to, they were just in a box of
cables that I aquired.
Humm... I wonder if I can use one of those cables with my Sabre monitors?
