Hi Everyone, I'm looking for a complete development system for the TMS340{10,20} graphics processors from Texas Instruments. I believe the development system had: 1) an ISA card with TMS340x0, frame buffer, DAC, etc. 2) DOS driver for said card 3) development tools: compiler, assembler, etc. 4) documentation on the card and chip Thanks! -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" free book <http://tinyurl.com/d3d-pipeline> The Computer Graphics Museum <http://computergraphicsmuseum.org> The Terminals Wiki <http://terminals.classiccmp.org> Legalize Adulthood!

HP 700/44 - Service Manual?

by Phil＠viscom.net

Howdy all,? I have a HP 700/44 terminal that I'm trying to nurse back to operation. I've managed to get the voltages on the board back into something resembling sane values (within 10% at worst) and I do now have a raster and it beeps on power-up but I have nothing on screen. I'm working without a schematic for now and it's kinda rough going. Anyone have a digital copy of the service manual for these 700 series terminals?? Thanks Phil

Reversing Sinclair's amazing 1974 calculator hack - half the ROM of the HP-35

by lproven＠gmail.com

"In a hotel room in Texas, Clive Sinclair had a big problem. He wanted to sell a cheap scientific calculator that would grab the market from expensive calculators such as the popular HP-35. Hewlett-Packard had taken two years, 20 engineers, and a million dollars to design the HP-35, which used 5 complex chips and sold for $395. Sinclair's partnership with calculator manufacturer Bowmar had gone nowhere. Now Texas Instruments offered him an inexpensive calculator chip that could barely do four-function math. Could he use this chip to build a $100 scientific calculator?" http://files.righto.com/calculator/sinclair_scientific_simulator.html?utm_s… -- Liam Proven ?

VAX/VMS 1.5 standalone DSC (was RE: VAX standalone backup: how to list it?)

by cctech＠beyondthepale.ie

> > Speaking of Standalone BACKUP, anyone have a copy of this? I don't > believe later VMS properly copies VMS 1.5 off. > I don't know if it works as far back as V1.5 but in later versions of VAX/VMS, the procedure was to build standalone backup on a tape or spare disk by executing @SYS$UPDATE:STABACKIT.COM on the running system.

VAX standalone backup: how to list it?

by cctech＠beyondthepale.ie

>Hello. >Maybe stupid question but I'm a newby of VMS. >I have a VS2000 with a Micropolis RD53 inside. >I recently repaired the hard disk, and from some tests it seems to have >no errors, so its content is safe. >I tried to boot the machine from it, and it turns to contain a >standalone backup. >I would try to list the content of the disk, but from manuals I >understand I would need to know the file names. >How to identify the content of this disk? >Thanks >Andrea The standalone backup environment is very limited. There is only one command - BACKUP which allows backups or restores to be preformed. If you have a tape device or another disk, you could try making a backup to it. If you include the /LOG qualifier, you should get a list of the files on the disk as they are backed up. Something like: BACKUP /IMAGE /LOG DUA0: MUA0:BACKUP.SAV /SAVE If you don't have a device to back up to, you could try backing up to the null device which, if it works, won't make much of a backup, but it should still list the files as they are processed: BACKUP /IMAGE /LOG DUA0: NLA0:BACKUP.SAV /SAVE Other than that, the other suggestions of putting the disk into a bootable system or booting the VS2000 from the network are probably the way to go.
