No offense Sellam, but I would say that they are worth about double those figures, for east coast values. I recently sold one in good condition for about $50 or $60 I think. Best, David, classiccomputing.com

I assume this was meant for me since I was looking for these tapes a long
while back, so I'll respond.
Nope, I'm no longer interested. I've gotten rid of the drive, and the few
tapes I had (which didn't work with my drive anyway), have been sent on
to someone else that could use them.
Thanks anyway.

Hello all,
I sure hope someone from this group can make it there Saturday and pick
up some of these machines. I wish I could, but I'm a couple of thousand
miles away...
I'm very (and I mean *very*) interested in that HP 9820/21 (hint, hint).
Regards,
Stan

Hi,
I saw on a news group posting that you owned the book
"How to build a working digital computer" by Edward Alcosser.
Would you be interested in selling this book? I would also pay top dollar
for a photocopy of the book.
Thank you for your time,
- Chris Lind

The ADM3 did not perform cursor addressing, which the ADM3A did, making the 3A
much more useful in many applications - I don't think there would be a termcap
entry for a 3.
Btw, on the off chance that these are 3A's, I'll mention that I have detailed
photos of one, as well as PDF's of both the operators and service manuals posted
on my web site: http://www.parse.com/~ddunfield/museum/index.html
Look under the "Altair 8800" entry (I use a 3A on the Altair).
Regards,
Dave

82928A System monitor:
Provides the necessary hardware to aid in developing and debugging
assembly language programs for HP Series 80 Personal Computers. The HP
00085-15007 (or 00087-15007), 82928A and 82929A form a complete set of
tools.
The 82928A System monitor is described in the HP85 Assembler ROM
manual. This manual is currently available on the MoHPC CDROM
(http://www.hpmuseum.org) collection (if you are interested in the 85
then purchasing the MpHPC collection should be a priority as it also
contains the 85 service manual).
Somebody has promised me a scan of the 85 assembler manual, so it
should appear shortly in the www.series80.org site as well.
Last but certainly not least is John Shadbolt's site
(http://www.vintagecomputers.freeserve.co.uk/hp80)

Hi
I'd be more interested in getting a Beehive terminal.
Intel blue would be nice.

Hello, all:
While browsing an early-1980 issue of Compute magazine, I saw a blurb for Rockwell offering copies of the manufacturing test program for the AIM 65 computer. The blurb references a test manual (#EA74-M800) and a test program listing (#EA74-J100). It also indicates that on the manufacturing line, two EPROMs with the test program are installed in the BASIC ROM slots.
Does anyone have either manual or the ROMs in question?
Thanks.
Rich
My father has 10 or 12 of these terminals that he has no need for. I'm not familiar with them, would they be of interest to anybody or should I tell him to just scrap them?
PLEASE CONTACT ME REGARDING THESE TAPES IF YOU STILL HAVE THEM.
Hello,
If you are still interested, I have a total of 11 compatible tapes (8
Teac CT-600N and 3 Maxell CS-600XD). All are used and have used labels.
As far as I know, they all still work. (I still have the tape drive as
well, but have no longer an operating Apple system, so I cannot check
these).
If you are interested, please let me know.
