Screw that. The thing I could never get management to understand is that a) 3am means that if something goes wrong later on in the production morning, you've got a bunch of zombies trying to do complex troubleshooting, and b) at 3am with absolutely nothing happening, it's pretty hard to tell if something's going to work right under a load. -Mike

m4 data 1/2 tape drive woes

by jwest＠classiccmp.org

Well I just confirmed my suspicions by hooking the m4 (9903) drive up to it's original system (a General Automation Zebra 2820). The MK2 SCSI board in the M4 data drive is "faulty", the controllers don't see it. I hate to go in search of a new 1/2 SCSI tape drive as they are pretty expensive. My M4 is (comparatively) light, and was little used and in gorgeous condition. So, what are the chances someone may have a "256K MK2 SCSI" board for an M4 Data 9903 tape drive? Or know where I might find/buy one? Thanks :\ Jay West

Apple A/UX

> What I want to know is was A/UX 1.0 ever released http://www.aux-penelope.com/ Some actual facts, as opposed to the half-baked opinions on appleFritter 1.0 was released only on disc. The way you got it internally was trundle over to Bubb Road with an 80meg disc and they cloned a copy for you.

Anyone here familar with Motorolda PowerStack computers?

by rigdonj＠cfl.rr.com

I picked up two of these yesterday. I searched the net but didn't find much information about them but I did find enough so that I know what they are. However one of the ones that I have doesn't have the rounded top. Instead the top is flat and it has a rectangular opening in it and a circuit board sticking up into the opening. It looks like it was made for an expansion chassis to mate with. Anybody know more about that? Joe

NEC APC III diskettes?

by d_cymbal＠hotmail.com

Nope, actually the APC III has 5.25 drives. The original APC had the 8" floppies. >From what I googled the APC III is using quad density 720kb floppies. It ran a modified OEM'd version of MSDOS 2.11. Also apparently there was PC/UX a System III derivative available from NEC at the time. Alas, I've yet to find images of either to this point.
