OSI 560Z card (PDP-8 emulation on OSI) info / software

by dfnr2＠yahoo.com

Hello, I'm looking for any information on the OSI 560Z card.? This was an OSI plug-in card that had an intersil/Harris IM6100 chip, and a Z-80 chip both under control of the 6502 Host CPU.? The card also had 64K of RAM on board, which could be accessed by the 6502 via a sliding 4k window at a fixed address in the 6502 memory map.? This allowed emulation of a PDP-8 via the 6502.? I found the schematics on Mark's OSI page (http://osi.marks-lab.com/boards/boards.html), but I'd love to find the manual and software.? If anybody has a manual or software, and care to share it (and let me post it on my web site, http://osiweb.org), I'd be grateful. I just did a quick search, and found a similar query from 2004, but I think enough time has passed that some new lead may turn up. Happy classic computing! Dave

Bondwell 12 update + new scans...

by geneb＠deltasoft.com

I stopped off to pick up the Bondwell and discovered two things - it DOES have a couple of disks tucked into the little slot underneath the drives, and the proprietor may want as much as $75 for the machine. The employee didn't know for sure and the machine wasn't priced. The person thought the price was "something crazy". I told him if it _was_ $75, it wasn't crazy, it was insane. I'm hoping I don't have a local version of wiredforservice or computerhistorymuseum on my hands. *sigh* I left my contact information - if the guy wants more than $20, he'll enjoy keeping the machine. On to the goodies... I've added a Z-System software catalog and issues 1, 3, 4, and 5 of the Z-Letter as well as an issue of ComputerLand magazine. Hit http://www.retroarchive.org to check 'em out. tnx. g. -- Proud owner of F-15C 80-0007 http://www.f15sim.com - The only one of its kind. http://www.diy-cockpits.org/coll - Go Collimated or Go Home.

Looking for : Sharp PC-1405

by mhstein＠canada.com

--------------Original Message------------------ Date: Fri, 17 Jan 2003 16:27:36 -0500 (EST) From: liste(a)artware.qc.ca Subject: Looking for : Sharp PC-1405 Or equiv (Tandy had them as PC-2 or something, iirc). The goal of my classic collection is to get one of every computer I've programmed over the years. One of the first computers I programmed was a PC-1405 (actually, I can't remember the exact model). I found one of these in a pawn shop. By brother "stole" it. I found another. This was my one classic computer that was helluva useful. So useful I took it with my places. And, well, I've just lost it. I've checked eBay and there are a few Sharp Pocket Computers, but W@W L@@K @ T3H PR1C3Z! Buy it now for "only" 300 USD! http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3000156764&category=15030 So, does anyone here have one they don't need and/or would be willing to let go for a reasonable price? -Philip -------------------------------------- I've got a PC-1421 Financial Computer if you (or anybody) are interested: 76 character keyboard 16 character display 40K ROM Basic 4.2 Kb RAM Interface for optional CE-126 Printer/Cassette (don't have) 6 modes: Normal calculator Financial calculator Statistical calculator Basic program mode Basic run mode Almost new, in box with cover & 280P manual. Make me an offer (less than US$ 300, or even CDN$ 300 :). mike

CHM honors Jim Williams and Bob Pease

by mcguire＠neurotica.com

I just read that CHM will honor Jim Williams and Bob Pease in a new exhibit opening on October 15th. The exhibit will feature Jim William's well-known, unbelievably cluttered bench, painstakinly relocated in-situ. I felt a real physical pain when I learned about the deaths of Williams and Pease. Thank you, CHM, for doing this. Article with photos here: http://www.edn.com/article/519496-Computer_History_Museum_honors_Jim_Willia… This is, of course, not intended to detract from the well-deserved attention Steve Jobs (RIP) is getting. -Dave -- Dave McGuire Port Charlotte, FL
