I'm racking a BA23 system into a corporate cabinet, using a BA23-AR mounting
kit. I have the rails, front brackets and front cover but I'm lacking the rear
brackets that secure the rails to the rear cabinet posts. Apparently some racks
require these brackets and some don't. I have _three_ racking kits and none of
them have the rear brackets.
The brackets are short pieces of sheet metal, about 2" deep and 3" high. They
are bent in a shallow U shape with an extended tab on one leg. Part numbers are
7428372-01 and 7428372-02 (left and right sides). They are shown in the BA23
Enclosure Maintenance manual, p 2-22.
Please let me know if you can spare a pair (or more) of these items.
Thank you,
Jack

I'm looking for more information on the Teleray series of terminals
>from Research, Inc. (Note: Teleray is the name of the terminal line,
not the name of the company! Although later they referred to
themselves as the "Teleray Division" of Research, Inc.)
In particular I'm looking for manuals and other documentation. If you
have a Teleray terminal and you're looking to get rid of it, I would
be interested in purchasing it from you.
I know of the following models:
Year Model
1971 Teleray 3300
1975 Teleray 3900
1976 Teleray 3811
<1977? Teleray 3541
<1977? Teleray 3741
1977 Teleray 3841
1977 Teleray 4041
1978 Teleray 1061
1979 Teleray 10
1979 Teleray 11
1979 Teleray 12
1980 Teleray 14
<1981? Teleray 100
1982 Teleray 16
1985 Teleray 20-7305
<1990? Teleray 30
Thanks!

I have recovered most of the Turbodos and CPM 3 files for the ADC Super Six
On the CPM 3 disk were the sources for the boot EPROM, but there is an unreadable
sector in the middle of it. Does anyone have this board? I bought one a while
back, but it appears to have an OASIS boot rom on it.
The files are up under http://bitsavers.org/bits/AdvancedDigitalCorp/super6_turbodos
the zip file under /prom appears to be an OASIS disk image and eprom
here is as much as I was able to recover

I remember reading about a public project (NOT Google) that is attempting to preserve discarded books. I think they were located in Oregon, but I could easily be wrong about that. You send them the books and they ship them to China to be scanned. They get the books back and then store the physical copy in containers (with nitrogen instead of air?) in a mine or cave somewhere . Sorry that I don't have more specifics about them, but some Googling should turn them up.

Hi guys,
Does anyone have any turbochannel graphics cards for the DEC 3000 AXP
series?
Ideally 24 bit, 8 bit would be fine, I need two or three.
Regards, Mark.
