Software archiving news from the Computer History Museum

> Will you be posting the progress to a blog? :) It really does seem like there needs to be something. CHM is pretty opaque from the outside (having been a volunteer for over five years). I really like like Paul McJones' "Dusty Decks" site and may use that as a model. http://www.mcjones.org/dustydecks/

collection management system for web?

by legalize＠xmission.com

So what does everyone use to manage an exhibit of their collection as a web browsable thing? So far I've been hand-editing HTML, but its getting a little laborious and I'm wondering what sort of open source PHP/MySQL content management system out there might be apropos for such a thing. I'm using drupal <http://www.drupal.org> for a web site I'm doing and that seems to fit well with the collaborative nature of the site, but I'm not so sure it would be best for managing a collection site. What do you use? -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline"-- code samples, sample chapter, FAQ: <http://www.xmission.com/~legalize/book/> Pilgrimage: Utah's annual demoparty <http://pilgrimage.scene.org>

Yup, I am not staring at $500 or $700 (way too much), and I am not counting to make big bucks here. I will have a good look at it this evening, scan the doc (if I have it) tomorrow and then put it up on eBay for, say $25 ...! - Henk. > -----Original Message----- > From: cctalk-bounces at classiccmp.org > [mailto:cctalk-bounces at classiccmp.org] On Behalf Of dwight elvey > Sent: dinsdag 2 mei 2006 16:24 > To: cctalk at classiccmp.org > Subject: RE: uScope 820 > > Hi > The 499 one is on its second round, after not being sold for 499. > It is not likely that the 700 one will get much either.

360k disk and 1.44 drives not happy

by rigdonj＠cfl.rr.com

Ram, I have a couple of those too and they do work great. However I got mine surplus and haven't taken the time to figure out the jumpers setting. Do you know what they are?

uScope 820

by henk.gooijen＠oce.com

Wow, $500 and $700 for that thing? I have one at home with the documentation, and I am sure never going to use it. Guess putting it on eBay will make some money to finance the PDP-11 stuff which is far more interesting than Intel *&@#~$% I will check bitsavers if the doc is available, else I will scan that first. - Henk. > On 5/1/06, Don Y <dgy at dakotacom.net> wrote: > > Hi, > > > > Can anyone verify that this box (1976 vintage) also handles > 8080's? > > I'm *sure* I had an 8080 "personality module" for mine but I can't > > seem to find it (nor the overlay or the pod). > > > > FWIW, these two uScope items are both pictured with 8080A probes. > > http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8802128045 > http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5227203002 > This message and attachment(s) are intended solely for the use of the addressee and may contain information that is privileged, confidential or otherwise exempt from disclosure under applicable law.

I wish you'd scan the docs. I have both a Z-80 and an 8080 unit that I'd love to try out (and then sell on E-bay for $700+ :-) Joe

19" Rack History

by Billy.Pettit＠wdc.com

When I was in the Army (Signal Corps), they told us the 19" standard was >from Germany, during WWI. It was actually .5 meters and used on all their early military electronics. But I have no data whatsoever to back this up. It was just one or two instructors and probably pure bull shit. Billy
