I just acquired an old (on-topic)(I think) HP 9195A
flatbed scanner... because it has an ADF (Automatic Document
Feed). Likely it's only 300dpi monochrome, but I want it only
for mass-scanning of (on-topic) crufty docs. (I have a nice,
newish flatbed 2**20 color, 2petapixel/inch scanner I paid
nearly $20 for, 15 minutes ago, but it requires a hairy meat
arm to feed it sheets.)
I found & downloaded the sj121en1.exe driver, which is the
most-recent version, for Win95. I don't have a Win95 machine
(I actually own zero win/dos computers) but bought a loaded
Dell P120 for such things.
My questions are all obvious:
* has anyone used this scanner on linux? (parallel interface, mind you)
* does it work under wine, vmware, dosemu?
* Will it work under WinXP? Win98? DOS?
I do have legit Win95 CDRs to install, as a desparate last
resort. Don't make me install it please!
Sorry, last one. This was the one I called up upon ($300)

Speaking of GPIB... Does anyone have a spare PCI or PCMCIA GPIB interface
lying around? I've been looking into upgrading the machine I use for
downloading IA files to my logic analyser, but no-one seems to sell PC
motherboards that have both an ISA slot and an AGP slot, and take a fairly
recent CPU. That and PCI GPIB cards seem to sell on ebay for stupidly high
prices - I saw one listed as "Untested, no warranty" go for nearly $300...
Later.

That is not true. There are several Pentium4-based AGP, ISA, PCI based
motherboards. I went a different route for my transputers which are
ISA-based for the most part (I use an SBC Pentium4 with 8 ISA, and 12 PCI
slots). The problem is that they are a bit expensive compared to a regular
Pentium4 motherboard. The necessity is due to the tremendous amount of
industrial equipment that needs to continue running on an ISA-based machine.
Here is one:

expensive side, but I saw one for about $300)...

Longest of long shots, but I don't suppose anyone has any spare RML 380Z
keyboards that they don't want, do they? No, I didn't think so...
Anyone know if the same keyboard unit (repackaged into a different shell
or whatever) was ever used with any other machines / terminals of the
time? A quick dismantling of mine shows that they were made my
Alphameric, and that the PCB looks horribly familiar (as does the
name!).

Can someone remind me of the URL for that data recovery place in NZ that
was mentioned on the list a while ago? Thought I'd bookmarked it, can't
find it now...
Someone on one of the local usenet groups that I read was asking about
data recovery from a dead drive; thought I'd mention the NZ place as I
recall them being far cheaper than UK companies...

Hi
I always love the term "Power Up". About all that means
is that some light will go on and there is little or no smoke.

Someone (I believe a non-listmember) sent me this pic out of the blue...
DECies will want to see it. It was sent to me with the following quote....
