A local auction site ( Switzerland ) lists a Data General DG/20 Micreclipse system.
I believe it is rare enough to mention here .
I would take it but there is just so much you can tackle.

This looks like a match for the board on eBay:
http://www.deadprogrammer.com/amdahl-business-in-the-front-party-in-the-back
So what do I win? :) Also take note of the following statment:
"and pound for pound there was more dead Amdahl hardware repackaged as
kitsch on the desks in sales than we had actually moved in Amdahl
equipment. ?
with regards,

Got me on that one.?? All of the boards I've ever owned
have had proms -183 and -184.?? I was thinking those
boards were -BH, but I could be mistaken; they might
have been -BF . . .
As long as they would boot DU/MU, and supported auto-boot,
I wasn't terribly concerned about anything else. . .

Anybody recognize the board in this lot:
120314777595
transputer maybe? I hope the bidder isn't really going
to reclaim the obvious "pounds" of gold on it.
Stumbled across this in my closet,
it's a very old (probably about 8 years) Xyplex switch, 8-12 slot, chasis.
it's very large, at least half the size a PDP BA-123 chasis
it runs usual routing protocols, and *may* include BGP.
it hasn't been turned on in many many years
I have to move at the end of the month and would like to get rid of it before then.
Otherwise it's going to the scrappers.
Dan.

OK, time again to dust off the old brains out there. I found a ("the")
ISIS-II emulator that runs under dos, which comes with a PLM80 compiler. It
also comes with link, locate, objhex and other goodies. The PLM80 compiler
identifies itself as PLM80 V4. I worked on the development of the ISIS-II
stuff at Intel in the very early 80's as well as on the National
Semiconductor Starplex system (anyone remember that one?) so I am able to
tinker around and remember how most of this works, but version 4 of the
PLM80 compiler is getting the better of me.
I have the PLM80 Programmer's Manual, but it is for earlier versions of the
two-pass version of PLM80, version 4 was a single pass version that used the
linker and locator, all of which was the precursor to the PLM86 compiler and
tools. I believe this version came out shortly before the 8086 was
introduced, everyone went on to the segmented world and never looked back,
which may explain why there isn't much out there for it. I am not able to
locate any information on this version 4 of PLM80 anywhere, and the use and
format is definitiely different from prior versions of PLM80.
Anyone out there have any information or pointers for me? I have tried all
of the excellent repositories of manuals and emailed Herb, his site
indicates that he might have what I need. Anyone have an ISIS-II set of
manuals sitting around that can check for me?
Specifically, I am in need of:
98-00268B plm 80 programming manual, V4
Thanks.

By the way, I am running the ISIS-II emulator in a DOS box under windows,
itself an emulator. Windows is running under Parallels on my Mac Pro which
is running OSx. Is it possible to get further from reality here??
I've just been sniped (again) for one of these on eBay (#290263627918).
I don't especially care about the physical artifact, I'd just like to
see what's on the thing. Anybody know where I can grab an ISO image?
Thanks,
--Steve.

I'm certainly no expert on mainframes, but I do recognise a Fujitsu logo
when I see one. So, my money is on this being a board out of a Fujitsu
mainframe computer. Chips like that, with cooling towers etc.... Maybe
ECL logic?
I remember many years ago visiting Fujitsu's main development location.
The whole of the basement was constructed as a museum of all Fujitsu
major products over the years, including tons of computer stuff. I
remember marvelling at PCBs with 20+ signal layers and integral fluid
cooling etc, in the days when most PCBs were only double sided or 4
layers at best. Fascinating stuff!
I suspect the winner of the auction has got himself something that would
have cost major $$$ when new.

Well, once again I find myself with too much stuff and not enough places
to put it. And my GF is moving in sometime soon so I really need the
room :). So here's a few things I'm getting rid of, in case anyone's
interested:
Stuff is free, but local pick up (Seattle area) only! Works unless
otherwise indicated. Anything not claimed 'll end up being recycled,
most likely.
Monitors:
- Amdek Color-I. Color AND Sound!
- Mitsubishi DiamondScan (CGA/EGA, composite, TTL) (needs a cap kit)
- Magnavox Professional (EGA)
- Gateway 15" SVGA (Trinitron)
- NeXT 21" Color -- beat up, but worked last time I used it a few years
back.
- NeXT 17" Color -- same.
Computers:
- Dell Optiplex GX Pro - dual PPro upgraded to Dual PII (via overdrive
CPUs). I have some RAM for it somewhere... works.
- IBM PS/2 Model 25. Will not power up. Color screen, 20mb hard disk.
Printers:
- HP Laserjet 6P. Missing rear side covers (over power/parallel ports)
but works fine. Relatively new toner cartridge.
Misc Junk:
- HP 1200B Oscilloscope. Needs repair.
- Various AT and ATX cases, empty but I can throw in a power supply or
two assuming I have one that fits. Inquire for details.
