SIMMS are the new stuff -- lets talk old, like: 1 meg X 1 bit DRAM in a 20 pin DIP package. I bet most of that has ended up on the landfill by now. I need a large quantity to populate Amiga RAM boards. Gary Hildebrand St. Joseph, MO

Comparing existence of massive number of files

by RCini＠congressfinancial.com

Antonio: CDCheck looks like what I need. I can do two checksum files (one on each directory) and compare the results. Thanks a lot for the suggestion. Rich ========================== Richard A.

These days, when I put together a data CD, I use CDCheck to build a CRC file for it. Once the CD is burned, I verify using the same tool to be sure it all made it onto the CD. I use MD5SUM too, but that does one directory at a time (AFAICT) so it is a little less useful. Antonio -- --------------- Antonio Carlini arcarlini(a)iee.org

Matrix 3U CPU card?

by mmcfadden＠cmh.edu

Joe R. was asking about Matrix cards We used to have a VME based x-ray film scanner that was a Matrix product, it was a prototype. If I remember correctly I think Matrix was based in California and made film cameras and scanners for industrial applications. Our initial unit had a VME controller with a micro PDP-11 as the network interface. I think I have the micro PDP-11 somewhere in my garage. Looks like Agfa purchased them. Mike

Comparing existence of massive number of files

by RCini＠congressfinancial.com

Patrick: Funny you should mention Windiff. After reading the responses today I was going to use Windiff to compare the directory printouts produced on both machines and see if there's a difference in the output. But thinking about it, Windiff has the ability to directly compare directories. If I point it at the top "parent" on each machine I should be able to see differences right away. I guess then the final test would be comparing the MD5's on each directory to ensure file integrity. Any good MD5 utilities for Windows that will handle large file sets? I downloaded two today but one is a file-by file MD5 and the other doesn't recurse down the directory tree...it only does the current directory.

IBM available

Another IT department here at Caltech (not mine) is looking to unload an IBM "mainframe". Details of the configuration are listed below.

Time to Purge! -- I think it's all spoken for.

by nerdware＠ctgonline.org

I've gotten a pile of emails this morning, so after I sort through who wants what and who asked first, I think it's all gone as of this moment. As soon as I figure it out, or if I come up with more stuff, I'll post up. If you've sent me an email -- I'll get to it in a little bit. Thanks!

Shipping a Teletype

by cb＠mythtech.net

>Any estimates on what would be a "reasonable" estimate for shipping a >Teletype (with base, two cartons] Origination is Long Island, Destination is >not known except it will be within the "lower 48" states. I shipped one a while back. I broke it down into two parts, the teletype and the base. I packed each in their own box. I got boxes that were a good bit larger than the part to be packed, and IIRC, then lined the boxes with formed FedEx boxes (the free ones you get from them) to act as stiffeners. Then lined the interior of the now "double box" assembly with bubble wrap. Then heavily wrapped the item in layers of bubble wrap. Then placed it into the box, filled the voids, put on the top layer of lining boxes, then taped it shut. I think the total cost was something like $40 or $45 per box to go from NJ to St Louis (it was probably 2 years ago, but I seem to recall it was something in that range... I think the boxes were about 65 lbs each packed). I'd assume they arrived in good condition as I didn't hear any complaints >from the person I sent them to. You can ask Jay to be sure, he's the one that got it. >Also any recommendations on a carrier? I used FedEx Ground, simply because I had a FedEx account, and they were willing to do it cheaper then UPS. >Finally any "sepcial packing techniques [specifically any internal >assemblies that need to be secured]? Um... I can't help you there, I honestly hadn't thought about that issue until you asked it here. Now I am worried that I caused the thing to be trashed in shipping because I failed to bolt something in place. (Probably not, or I'm sure Jay would have complained) -chris <http://www.mythtech.net>

Shipping a Teletype

by CPUMECH＠aol.com

Which model? I know on a model 33 you have to put a shipping bolt in the printer mechanism thru the base to secure it.
