Hi Geoff,
If you don't mind a Do It Yourself project, back in 97 I posted instructions
on how I turn soft sectored diskettes into 10 sector, hard sectored diskettes
for my Horizon. You would just need one hard sectored diskette
to use as a template.

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
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.

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 :).

Does anyone know how many issues of the Z-Letter (think CP/M & ZCPR) were
published? I've got #s 1, 3, 4 and 5 plus the first Z-System software
catalog.

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.

This is, of course, not intended to detract from the well-deserved
attention Steve Jobs (RIP) is getting.
