Do you guys ever come across older technical software for the PC or Mac? Over the last few years I have found copies of some cad software along with mathematics, MathCAD, and a few other goodies for my 68k macs. I was wondering how common that kind of software is and what kind of places would have it.
Alright. Here are some questions regarding the PDP-7 wire rewrapping:
Are there different sizes?
Different/special wires?
Is it hard? In comparison to soldering?
Are there huge differences in wrapper types?
I've got several offers, and thank you all for those. With some of this
info, I might get back to some of them. :)

I fell for the same thing. They are 12 sector 5440 packs.
He also did an AMAZINGLY poor job of packing. 7 packs in a cardboard
box with NO padding.
Shipped USPS media mail.

Hello.
I am about to take a TRS 80 under the knife to repair a keyboard. The
computer works fine, 16K Model 1/ 008 (never seen one with a part number
ending with "1008". The S/N 0000738) ...Anyway the E key does not work on
the main keyboard, and the 2 key does not work on the number pad. I
believe it's a contact problem, not a chip problem, based on what I have
read. I have a schematic for TRS 80 Model III. I *assume* that the model
I and III keyboards are basically the same enough to give me a clue where
to isolate the circuitry for the "E" and "2" keys . Looking for a second
opinion. Also if anyone on this mailing list knows details about the TRS
80 "008", I would be curious to lean more. I believe this is the last
version of the TRS 80 Model 1, but other than that I have found few
references to this model on the Internet from searching.

I just read some statistics about the change in direction that Ebay
is taking. From AuctionBytes-Update Number 114 - March 7, 2004 -
ISSN 1528-6703:
"Collectibles comprised 60 percent of the total value of goods sold on
eBay in 1999. In 2003, collectibles comprised just 13 percent of gross
merchandise sales.
Each year, selling on eBay becomes more challenging. If you have a
rare and unique item, you'll get a very good price on eBay. Otherwise,
in many categories, competition is tough."
