The radio museum here has two Mac IIci's to get rid of, along with an Apple 14" colour monitor and ADB keyboard. Is there any interest in these? If not the whole system, there are a couple of 'special' boards in them: - Pro Tools Audiocard - Sound Accelerator II - Radius Accelerated 24-bit Graphics They are located in the Vancouver area, B.C., Canada. I could extract and ship boards, I don't expect they are worth shipping whole units. .. just thought I'd ask/offer, eWaste otherwise.

HP Laserjet 4+ and Sun lunchboxes in Paris

by alexandre.laguejacques＠gmail.com

Hi all, A friend of mine has 3 slightly defective Sun lunchboxes (2 IPX/IPC, I think that the NVRAMs are dead, 1 LC without a power supply) and an HP Laserjet 4+ that seems to make accordeons 3 times out of 5. The latter is surely easily repairable. All items are in Paris 15e. Contact me off-list if you're interested. Thanks, Alex

looking for some RA60 drives

by mcguire＠neurotica.com

Hey folks, I'd like to get my hands on one or more RA60 drives, ideally three or four of them. I can pick them up if they're within reasonable driving distance of western PA. (which, for me, means "can get there and back in a day") Does anyone have any that they'd like to see re-homed? -Dave -- Dave McGuire Port Charlotte, FL

It works very well for those applications. I haven't tried running anything else yet except a homegrown boot loader. AFAIK it works very well. /Jonas

update and pics of 11/785 and opps... slot machine

by useddec＠gmail.com

The person who owns the 785 finally got it dug out, and I looked at it about a week ago and got a few pics. Unfortunetly, he pulled the main boards and sold them for scrap. I have a spare 780 board set and backplane, and most of the 785 board set. The pics show better detail than I could see because of poor lighting. I couldn't find the flashlight I keep in the car. The expansion cab has the BA11-KE and boards are in it. The 11/03 and RX02 are there. I will be happy to dig into it in more detail if anyone is interested. No tape or disk were seen while there, but he doesn't remember getting rid of them. It might end up getting totally parted out. I just opened a flickr acct, and accidently left on pics of a slot machine. An aquantance passed away and I'm trying to help his daughter to find a home for it. Any gamers? All located in Chanpaign, IL area. Thanks, Paul http://www.flickr.com/photos/useddec/

Kaypro 4 CP/M disks

by percy.walls＠gmail.com

I was given a Kaypro 4 that had belonged to my father-in-law. he died about 6 years ago, and the machine was stored in a unventilated garage in NM, and any disks where either lost or are unusable. I am a retired disabled vet, and only have a newer laptop and with no 5 1/4 drive to be able to recreate the disks from the archives. I would be very great-full if someone could supply me with a set of CP/M OS disks, a basic interpreter and compiler, and maybe some games. I'm more than willing to pay a modest amount for materials and time. Also can anyone know where I can purchase floppy disks for the Kaypro Thanks in advance Percy Walls ETC USN Ret.

P112 kits ship

by dgriffi＠cs.csubak.edu

The three people who have yet to get the P112 kits they paid for have been emailed to verify that they're still at the snail addresses I think they're at. I will have a very small number of kits left over after this. I'm not saying how many until I've purchased some more parts and am ready to take orders. -- David Griffith dgriffi at cs.csubak.edu A: Because it fouls the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing in e-mail?
