Looking for the following NeXT hardware
NeXT Laser Printer
NeXT Cube
NeXTstation, can be mono, color, turbo or whatever
And any and all related NeXT items
Thanks
One of these nifty Esprit 350C terminals Cindy was noting a week or so
ago has arrived, but I can't find a manual online anywhere. I have
figured out how to get to the config screen, but can't figure out how to
get the terminal to try to connect to an ip address.
Anyone have a manual or know how to do that?

Hi folks,
I'm currently sorting parts of my stuff. And I found out that I have less RK05
packs with 16 sectors (PDP8) than drives. I have some 12 slot packs as well.
But I could need more 16 sector packs.
I have access to some masses of 12 sector packs... Probably I'm not alone with
that situation.
If there's enough interest it could be possible to machine new center hubs for
the packs. With custom sectoring. I'm quite sure that the biggest part of the
cost would be the programming and setup of the CNC that turns the hubs. Then
changing the sectoring to customer demands will probably cheap and easy. So the
idea of making new center hubs could be quite interesting for the folks who need
the same pack style for other computers with other sectoring. I know of IBM 1130
and some HP computers using the same packs which were originally an IBM idea.
Any comments? Interested? Your feedback helps me to decide if it's reasonable to
do it or better put the idea into the trash.
An important point would be the amount of cash one is willing to pay for
one center hub.
Kind regards
Philipp

Hi,
I am in the process of working on a new Amiga game, but I have the
graphics saved in .PNG format. I could convert them to the much
easier to decompress .IFF format, but .PNG image save many more
bytes (e.g image is 15KB saved as an .IFF vs. 9KB as a .PNG).
I have sucessfully decoded all the easy stuff, but am currently trying
to decode the IDAT chunk (where the image data is stored).
The format of the data is defined as follows (straight out of the RFC1951
Deflate Compression document available online):
??? 5 Bits: HLIT, # of Literal/Length codes - 257 (257 - 286)
??? 5 Bits: HDIST, # of Distance codes - 1 (1 - 32)
??? 4 Bits: HCLEN, # of Code Length codes - 4 (4 - 19)
??? (HCLEN + 4) x 3 bits: code lengths for the code length
??? alphabet given just above, in the order: 16, 17, 18,
??? 0, 8, 7, 9, 6, 10, 5, 11, 4, 12, 3, 13, 2, 14, 1, 15
??? These code lengths are interpreted as 3-bit integers
??? (0-7); as above, a code length of 0 means the
??? corresponding symbol (literal/length or distance code
??? length) is not used.
??? HLIT + 257 code lengths for the literal/length alphabet,
??? encoded using the code length Huffman code
??? HDIST + 1 code lengths for the distance alphabet,
??? encoded using the code length Huffman code
??? The actual compressed data of the block,
??? encoded using the literal/length and distance Huffman
??? codes
??? The literal/length symbol 256 (end of data),
??? encoded using the literal/length Huffman code.
All the documents I found online either say use the zlib library or point to
the RFC1951 document :(
Does anyone know how to decode the literal / length (HLIT) and distance
codes (HDIST)?
Huffman compression was always something I found hard, but it seemed
much easier after finding this page online:

I am looking for a working TK-50 drive. Mine is giving me a "not ready" on
the system. Is there any documentation out there on these tape drives? Is
there a way to emulate these?
Hutch
Has anyone come across one of these before and more importantly (to me!) has anyone any data sheets or a manual on the tape drive.
The drive has a Toshiba label on it saying "Cartridge Tape Drive MTH 0551 F001 Model No. CD-1000C" and has a direct drive capstan.
It looks like a 1/2" Cartridge Drive and it was used on the Data General Desktop Generation E6270 drive. I can find no mention of it on the internet so far!
Thanks, Mark
It's running on a small server out in my garage, connected to the internet thru a wireless link.
Usually it is on 24/7 but sometimes the cable internet will go down for maintenance, esp in the middle of the night PDT.
