Someone (Cyrus, orangutone(a)usa.net) over on the SDIY mailing list just posted the message below, in case anyone's interested in obtaining and preserving a Harmonicomputer: So, I have posted to this and other lists, and emailed various vintage gear techs, and nobody is interested in fixing an ailing Deltalab Harmonicomputer. Two techs have suggested I just throw it away, as the parts are hard to find and it would be cheaper to replace than to repair. Does anybody here have any suggestions for a project? This thing has an interesting set of front-panel controls, and it is loaded chock-a-block with a variety of chips, most of which are perfectly good.

Motorola MVME131

by Lee.Davison＠merlincommunications.com

> I have the Motorola "16/32-Bit Microcomputer System Components" databook > (DL127, Revision 1, 1985), but the MVME131 datasheet therein is marked > "Advance Information" and is only seven pages long. It's not much more > than an overview. However, if it will help you, I'll scan and PDF it. That's more than I have at the moment so yes it will help. If anyone else has jumper and I/O pinouts, memory maps etc. that would be of use.

WTD: Fairchild 96LS488 datasheet

by philpem＠dsl.pipex.com

Hi, Does anyone happen to have a copy of the Fairchild 96LS488 datasheet lying around anywhere? I've checked Bitsavers and Google - nothing at all - not even a pinout. The datasheet is listed on PartMiner/FreeTradezone but I haven't got an FTZ account that has datasheet downloading enabled. Bah. Thanks. -- Phil. | Acorn Risc PC600 Mk3, SA202, 64MB, 6GB, philpem(a)dsl.pipex.com | ViewFinder, 10BaseT Ethernet, 2-slice, http://www.philpem.dsl.pipex.com/ | 48xCD, ARCINv6c IDE, SCSI ...

Old copy of PCTools...

by julesrichardsonuk＠yahoo.co.uk

Another find for someone if they want it: Ancient manual + floppy for Central Point's PC Tools Deluxe. Requires at least 256KB of memory and DOS 2.0 or higher. Version 1 presumably, as I can't see a version number on anything. There's a single 5.25" "DOS Utilities" floppy. Flicking through the install section in the manual, I believe that's all there's supposed to be. cheers, Jules

JetDirect EX print server

by ben_daily4＠yahoo.com

Robert, About a year ago you were having this conversation (through email) and now I happen to have one of these print servers (model J2382 B). Did you locate the particular manual for this unit? Can I get a copy of it if you did? Thank you, Ben JetDirect EX print server Feldman, Robert cctalk(a)classiccmp.org Thu Jun 12 15:38:01 2003 Previous message: Model 43 Teletype (ASR43) info needed Next message: Osborne 1 Voltage Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ] --------------------------------- I believe I have one at home. I'll check tonight and let you know tomorrow.Bob-----Original Message-----From: chris [mailto:cb@mythtech.net]Sent: Thursday, June 12, 2003 3:16 PMTo: Classic ComputerSubject: JetDirect EX print serverI'm not sure if this is older than 10 years yet, but people on this list have a library of manuals, so I'm asking anyway.Does anyone have a manual to an HP JetDirect EX print server device? Specifically model number J2382.I'm trying to find out how to default it to factory settings, and how to get in and change configurations. Holding the TEST button on power up doesn't seem to do default it (or if it is, it isn't clearing the error condition, but that might also be because it isn't taking the BootP info for its IP address).I have two doing the same thing, and I tend to doubt both are broken, so I'm guessing that the manual HP has on their site for the EX Plus doesn't have the right directions for it (not too surprised).So, anyone have that manual? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Transport arrangement needed UK -> GER

by Arno_1983＠gmx.de

Hello everybody, along with Mr. Hans Pufal, I was among those interested in Pete Turnbull's recent offer of network/terminal server equipment. However, the stuff needs to disappear fairly quickly from where it is now - i.e. a definitive arrangement has to be made until 23rd of July and pickup would have to take place before the end of the month. And here the fun begins: I have no chance to go abroad and get it in time as I'll be doing my 2nd Term Electrical Engineering testpapers in late July/early August. Just about no way around that. Pete and I have worked out that I should ask here if anybody from the UK (preferably near York) would go on holiday on the Continent this summer (passing through Southern Germany), or vice versa, and could be persuaded to collect and drop off the equipment in question. In return I offer lunch/dinner, drinks and if wanted a financial contribution for fuel. >From what it looks like by now, the cargo will be the following: (most certainly one each, max. two) Emulex P4000 terminal server w/ bits and pieces/cables) Connection panel for above (rackmount 2U high) 3Com Linkbuilder FMS II 24-port hub (rackmount 1U high) 3Com SuperStack II PS 40 24-port hub (rackmount 1U high) (small stuff) assorted plugins for above hubs AUI/10baseT-Microtransceivers (perhaps) one terminal DEC VT220, 420, or 510. To Mr. Hans Pufal: I've been told that you are already making a transport arrangement for the stuff you want. If nobody hits my area closer (Nuremberg, southern Germany) it has been suggested that I ask if you could have the additional material transported to France, which is at least a bit nearer for me to come by and pick it up later this summer. Please CC any answers to Peter <pete(a)dunnington.u-net.com> as well; I don't know if it's useful to answer on-list, I'd rather not. Thanks in advance -- Arno Kletzander Stud.
