Back in that era, I wasn't buying too many parts, but I remember looking over all the stuff they would cram in their ads and wishing I had a few bucks to scrape together. -ethan

Radio Shack Science Fair manuals

by magneticsciguy＠yahoo.com

Do you know of a group(s) exchanging Radio Shack Science Fair manuals? I'm thinking of rolling all of these into torrent(s) as I get them collected. I have manuals (that I can scan in, in a few phases) for: 28-249 "200 in 1" 28-267 "75 in One" & need manuals 28-245 "20 in 1" 28-259 "130 in One" Thanks much! Brian P.S. Radio Shack itself has a scattered few like (280-0161) "30-in-1" http://support.radioshack.com/support_games/doc18/18973.htm ----------------------------------- "Going back to 2003 and a post you made about the Radio Shack Science Fair 10 in 1... :) I have a manual for the 28-225 if you would like a scanned copy. Just let me know." http://www.classiccmp.org/pipermail/cctalk/2005-June/196536.html ____________________________________________________________________________________ Everyone is raving about the all-new Yahoo!

I don't have a TI 99/4a at present, but might end up with one in the future :) Even if I don't, the manual will be an interesting read ;) Regards, Andrew B aliensrcooluk at yahoo.co.uk

Time to purge - pickup only in the NW Indiana/Chicago area.

by nerdware＠ctgonline.org

The time has come for me to let go of the collection - I want my basement and garage back, and I just lost interest and don't have the time any more. I have an assortment of stuff, inlcuding a complete PCJr, a Kaypro II with bunches of disks, some Tandy stuff, and a couple of older Macs, along with several boxes of old Byte magazines. I donated a big lot of it to another collector several years ago, and this is what I had kept. But now it's time for even that to go - I'm keeping my first VIC-20 and my Amigas, along with one Mac SE/30 just for fun. I started listing stuff on *bay, but I no longer have time or easy access to the place where I used to ship from, and I'm just too busy to do it now anyway. If this interests you, please email me offline and I can give you some more details. If I don't hear from anyone in a week, I'm afraid it's going to the recycler. -- Paul Braun Valparaiso, IN "There's a fine line between stupid, and clever." - David St. Hubbins "Enjoy every sandwich." - Warren Zevon "The Fountain of Youth is a state of mind." - The Ides of March

All this talk of quipu's reminds me of one of my favourite cartoon shows from the early 80's - Mysterious Cities Of Gold. I don't suppose anyone knows of any games based on it?
