Hi all,
I have put up for auction on eBay a stack of 6 inches of
DataGeneral (micro) NOVA documentation. The item number
is 170120175007 in case you are interested (shameless plug),
but the other reason I would like to mention this auction
here, is that if you are not looking for the original sheets
of paper (as a DG collector), but you only want the printed
information, you do not need to place a bid! I have scanned
the whole pile and will send it to bitsavers (> 500 MB).
thanks,
- Henk.

Hi
As suspected the 5C error code during self test on my VAX 4000-300
is the missing DSSI Terminators.
So..
Does anybody have spare, or know where I can get two of DEC Part
number 12-29258-01 (DSSI Terminators)

My personal preference is to debind and scan. National and AMD
data books used very low grade paper, as did the people who
produced IC Masters.
Hi,
>....hard to get new CRT monitors now and the cheap LCD ones are
>rubbish!
Cheap nothing, I've never seen *ANY* LCD monitor (either fabulously
expensive or dirt cheap) which I would describe as being anything other than
diabolical! The same goes for LCD TVs too - and plasma sets aren't much
better in my opinion.
The people who buy these things must be profoundly blind if they're
satisfied with the picture quality produced by the current generations of
plasma/LCD screens, the technology simply isn't anywhere near good enough
yet.
>....We'll soon be reduced to scouring eBay for real monitors :-)
Quite, which is why I recently spend several months tracking down a very
nice, 32" wide screen *CRT* TV set; which I got for next to nothing since
the market is currently flooded with this LCD rubbish. :-)

=====================================
I had one of these beasties... It was pretty nice.
I traded it away about 10 years ago for a Apple IIC with Display.
I always wanted one of the Poquets. They looked like useful devices.

It's called HECnet (don't blame me - I didn't think of that name :-)
We've got several dozen machines at a dozen or so locations around the world
connected, and we're happy to have more join.
To connect, you'll need either
- A VAX running OVMS and Multinet (they have a hobbyist license, and also a
DECnet-over-IP implementation). If you have multiple local DECnet machines
and your VAX is a DECnet router, then they can all play with this one
gateway.
Or
- A Un*x box of some variety running Johnny's DECNet bridge program. In
this case the Un*x box is in addition to whatever other DECnet machines you
have on your local network.
You'll also need an Internet connection (of course), and a _static_ IP.
Contact me off the list if you're interested in connecting and I'll point
you in the right direction.

While cleaning out a storage area (indoors), I found an H3213-3400
psu and an H775-BA remote battery backup unit. As I recall, these
both came out of a Xerox 9700 controller cabinet, and the H3213 worked
when we last fired it up. The BBU hasn't had a battery pack on it in
at least 11 years (as long as I've been with the company), so I have
no idea whether or not it works.
They're both free for the taking. Pick them up, or arrange to have
them shipped. Both are fairly heavy and the 3213 is rather large.
Located in Wichita, Ks. May trade for C= 128 gear.
Thanks!

Hello Thomas
I found an old forum where you were asking about the power connector pinout
for the IBM Plasma Display 38F4744 from an IBM P70 computer. I hope you
found the pinout because i really hope you stille have it, and would like to
send it to me? I also hope that you have the pinout for the 26 pins data
connector?
Hope you can help me!!
