I found a specialix si/xio multi serial port controler, sadly without
the cables and actual link modules, it uses a ST t225 tranputer along
with 64kb memory.
As I looked at the linux software for it, it seems as I could upload
a small program to it and make it run, Anyone tried such a thing ?
While it might be a waste of good I/O card, without those external
modules it aint much good, might as well have som fun with it.
Would anyone happen to have drivers for a Newport system solutions
inc. isa serial card, its a full length card using a nec v50.
For this card I have everything except the drivers, Newport system is
part of Cisco now, but their site doesnt hold much infomation about
their old products.

Contact jwreames(a)comcast.net and indicate if you will be scanning/making
stuff available to help him decide who get it.

The one you have will probably work anyway. But since it isn't cleared
for 33 Mhz, it could fry (chances are it won't as Macs have usually
faired pretty well at being overclocked).
If you have no use for the 25 MHz version you have, I'd actually love to
make a trade. I'm pretty sure the ones I pulled are all 33 MHz (I'll
check in the morning), but since I planned to use them in Centris 610's
which are only clocked at 20 MHz, I'd be fine with a 25 MHz chip instead.
If you do have another use for it, no biggie, I'll still send you a full
040 chip (pending I have a 33 MHz one, but I'm pretty sure that is the
only speed I have, they came from dead Quadra 630's which were 33 MHz
machines)

I have several systems to trade or sell. Need to move them out. They're located in Houston TX and I'll give preference to anyone who can pick them up. Some I can't ship, too big, but some I can. Conditions are unknown as I haven't had time to work with any of these and don't suspect I will any time in the future. Not even sure what all is in each system. Thus, they're up for sale or trade. Ok, what is available...
PDP-11/60 card bays and cards, power supplies and I think the front panel. No cabinet. Can't ship this.
Kaypro 2
HP 715/100
HP 9000/300
HP 9836 - couple of key tops broken off but I still have them
I can send pics of any of the systems for those that are interested.

Can anybody tell me anything about these? Found a little something I thought was word processor, but it actually looks like some sort of serial terminal using 80 column paper for output vs. a CRT. Very compact, kind of a neat looking little package. Googling has come up dry.....
Silly question, I'm sure, but has anyone ever seen a CM-1 or CM-2
Connection Machine in the wild?

Has anyone got the system disks for the Sanyo MBC 555? If so, Tiziano in
Italy needs them. Please contact him at <tiziano.garuti(a)tin.it>.
