But let me guess, if you are guilty of murder you likely lose any privacy rights attached to your SSN. That's why, in this case, it's out there for all the public to see. Just like they post the names, photos and addresses of sex offenders on websites. But I guess that's "totally inappropriate" too. "Totally inappropriate"? In my book murder is "totally inappropriate." Making public the SSN of a convicted murderer, even if done intentionally, just isn't. At least, as the target of your "totally inappropriate" attack, that's my current take on it. -W

Only in really ancient versions of RT-11; not in V5. David's problem may have been that the RT11FB.SYS was SYSGENed inappropriately. The COPY/BOOT copies a section of the monitor into block 0 of the disk. -- Pete Peter Turnbull Network Manager University of York

I remember playing a DOS game by that name. Up 10 players, each has a tank in a 2-D screen, and you can blow the snot out of (or from under) each other. Anybody else play that game? -- --- Dave Woyciesjes --- ICQ# 905818

RT-11 installation

The RX01 used the DX driver and the RX01 used the DY driver. If the driver on the floppy does not match the actual drive, it will not boot. So, a normal RX01 floppy will not boot in an RX02 drive and vice versa. However, I THINK that if you used the wrong density floppy but put the right driver on it (An RX01 floppy with the DY driver as the boot driver) it will work, but that is not how the distributions were set up. Of course there are games you can play, like toggling in a bootstrap, but I don't think that was being asked. Well, anyway, that is what I remember of it, please, anyone, correct me if I'm wrong.

Lots of people have names that are common with other people, and these databases are largely used by employers to do background checks on potential employees. Providing the SSN greatly reduces the risk of a false positive that could result if you only ran a search by name - in other words, if the SSN doesn't match, it isn't the same person. As some may recall, when Schwarzenegger was campaigning for governor in CA there was a woman who accused him of groping who was immediately identified by the Schwarzenegger campaign as having been previously convicted for prostitution. Turned out that the hooker was a different woman with the same name. All they needed were a couple of SSNs. -W

HP 2748B paper tape reader (ebay)

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=1247&item=5144629838… If you could pick one... just ONE peripheral to put on an HP 2100 or 21MX, this would be it. He's including the cable and interface card too. Note, the cable will need a little work :) Jay

In NZ

by ethan.dicks＠gmail.com

OK, all... After 57 weeks... I have escaped the South Pole and am spending some wonderful warm sunny days in Christchurch, NZ. Should be here for a few weeks, so if any Kiwis on this list would like to have a get-together, let me know by e-mail, and I'll pass on my mobile number (which I'll be getting in an hour or so when I pick up a sim card for a borrowed phone). I have plans to visit the North Island later this month, but for a few weeks, I'll be here, hanging out. Cheers, -ethan P.S.- for another week or so, I'll have my Elf and SBC-6120 with me before I consider mailing them home... if you want to see one... there's a brief window of opportunity. I have a week left of U.S. postal priveleges with the program.
