ebay: Tektronix 8310 microprocessor development unit (Goldendale, WA)

by legalize＠xmission.com

See item # 130549364208 It has all the probes and manuals, which is more than is usually offered for these things on ebay. Looks a little dusty/dirty, but otherwise appears to be in working order. Seller wants $10 for it, which is probably less than scrap value. About 2 hrs from Portland, OR. -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" -- DirectX 9 draft available for download <http://legalizeadulthood.wordpress.com/the-direct3d-graphics-pipeline/> Legalize Adulthood! <http://legalizeadulthood.wordpress.com>

upgrade status

by jwest＠classiccmp.org

It appears all the classiccmp websites were moved sucessfully as well as the list itself. Everything went to a temp machine, so that I can replace all the drives/controller and reload the ccmp server from scratch without extended downtime. Let me know if there's any issues, and I'll keep you posted. J

Anyone have experience working on Apple 800K drives?

by aek＠bitsavers.org

The top head mechanism seems exceptionally fragile. I went though a stack of drives where most of the metal flexures have bent up so the head no longer makes contact with the media. Sony doesn't seem to have done a very good job of the mechanical design on this.

Auction Hunters find a Classic Computer and totally dismiss it

by oe5ewl＠gmail.com

that hurts. would be a nice find. i assume they would have found plenty of takers for the equipment if they had done some research about the stuff. the disk-packs alone would have been sold nicely. -- Wolfgang Eichberger - OE5EWL Operating System Collector Blog: 5ewl.blogspot.com Homepage: www.eichberger.org 2011/7/25 Bill Sudbrink <wh.sudbrink at verizon.net> > Yup, saw it.

Auction Hunters find a Classic Computer and totally dismiss it

by christian_liendo＠yahoo.com

Does anyone watch the TV Show "Auction Hunters". Last night they found a storage unit with some classic computers and they don't even notice. I put together a quick article on the episode.. There is one computer that is easily recognizable, the other I don't know what it is. Here is the link to the article http://8bitaficionado.com/2011/07/25/auction-hunters-totally-miss-out-on-th…

RD53 Stiction

by robert.jarratt＠ntlworld.com

I have an RD53 which is suffering from the sticky bumper problem. Normally I can resolve this with a sliver of paper placed over the sticky bumper. But in this instance it seems the bumper has practically liquefied and I think it has gummed up some of the mechanism. Is it feasible to dismantle the assembly to clean it up? Has anyone ever done this? Any advice? Thanks Rob
