Tektronix 4105, 4205 color graphics terminals for sale/trade

by legalize＠xmission.com

Before I contact the local Tektronix reseller or put these on ebay, I thought I would give the list a chance to get at these. They are all equipment from Telogy, an electronics test and measurement rental equipment company that went out of business. These are units that were electrically tested and calibrated by Telogy in the 1995 time frame. I will guarantee against DOA, but otherwise they are as-is with keyboards. Cosmetically they are in good condition although some units have the typical fading of equipment from the mid 80s. I am willing to trade for terminal servers, serial terminals (particularly ones capable of graphics), or anything interesting that's graphics related. Contact me off-list if you are interested. -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline"-- code samples, sample chapter, FAQ: <http://www.xmission.com/~legalize/book/> Pilgrimage: Utah's annual demoparty <http://pilgrimage.scene.org>

HP9817

by ard＠p850ug1.demon.co.uk

A rather strange question : Was there ever an 68020 daughterboard for the HP9817 (aka HP9000/217)? The reason I ask is as follows. The HP9817 (I have one in bits on the bench at the moment) uses a 68010 processor. It's in a PGA pacakge, and is socketed. As the data sheet shows, it's a 10*10 PGA, with 2 rows of pins round the outside, and the 4 internal corner pins (a total of 68 pins). However the socket on the HP9817 board has all 100 contacts fitted. And some of the ones that don't correspond to pins on the 68010 have traces going to them. It appears these are extra intputs to the MMU circuit (in particular to the 'Tag RAM' for virtual memory paging). I am wondering, therefore, if the machine was designed to take a processor with more address lines brought out, the obvious candidate being the 68020. Of corse it would need a daughterboard to rearrange the pinout, but apart from that it may well drop straight in. -tony

OK, I will scan the doc ... uhmmm need to check first *if* there is documentation though. I checked on bitsavers in the "Intel" directory, but did not find much resembling it. - Henk. > -----Original Message----- > From: cctalk-bounces at classiccmp.org > [mailto:cctalk-bounces at classiccmp.org] On Behalf Of Joe R. > Sent: dinsdag 2 mei 2006 12:12 > To: General Discussion: On-Topic and Off-Topic Posts > Subject: RE: uScope 820 > > At 08:21 AM 5/2/06 +0200, Henk wrote: > >Wow, $500 and $700 for that thing?

UK - laptops available Fwd: Very old `Laptop` - the original??? M20

by classiccmp.org＠irrelevant.fsnet.co.uk

see email below - May be of interest to anybody in the Manchester, UK, area.. Contact the author directly.. PLUS.. this reminds me.. I myself have a DEC Digital laptop available free to anybody who wants it. Model TS30G. Complete with docking station (port replicator, plus 10baseT/10base2 network adapter). Working EXCEPT battery dead, and the screen died last year and showed completely white image, at which point it's not been used since. (The VGA port drove a monitor ok so machine itself is fine, so may just be a connection issue. I don't know...) Collect from Salford (nr central Manchester). Email me for this one.

Need help with Heathkit H89 - loose wire!

by tosteve＠yahoo.com

Hi, I just received a nice Heathkit H89. Great condition, but there's a loose wire on the 16K memory board (one end isn't plugged in anywhere). Hopefully, this is the reason it won't boot. Please check your systems/manuals and let me know where it's supposed to go. It's circled in yellow on this pic: http://members.cox.net/oldcomputerads/pics/wire.jpg Thanks! Steve. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com

Manual for Sigma RQD11/SCSI Controller?

by bob＠jfcl.com

Does anybody have any docs for a Sigma RQD11/SCSI controller?? This is, I really really hope, a QBUS SCSI disk controller that speaks MSCP and emulates a RQDXn. BTW, does anybody know if this card can do TMSCP too, or just disks? Thanks, Bob

kaypro 10 utility and bios source files online

by frustum＠pacbell.net

I was poking around one of the two Kaypro 10s that I have. In one of the user spaces there were a number of source files with NLS copyright notices. I did a google search on a few of the names and didn't find any hits, so I uploaded the files to my PC and then put them online. They can be had here: http://www.thebattles.net/oddments/oddments.html
