Equip available - Flagstaff Eng. external 8" floppy, Xerox 820-II (Wichita, Ks)

by microfilm＠microfilm.kscoxmail.com

A few weeks ago, I posted a list of equipment for sale, and on that list was an external 8" floppy drive built (or at least, sold) by Flagstaff Engineering. I've finally found the interface card, so now the whole shebang is available. Card, cable, and drive. Also, I have two Xerox 820-II CP/M computers, with keyboards. I have one dual external 8" floppy for the 820-II's (not on per). I can ship the Flagstaff drive, but I'm not sure how to go about shipping the 820's. They are available in Wichita, Ks. --Shaun Microfilm Services, Inc. 316-269-2203

Sorry if I haven't back to you...

by useddec＠gmail.com

There are several members I was supposed to check on item and I have dropped the ball on a few. I rely greatly on high school students to do a lot of things I can't do myself anymore, and they have had proms and plays the last few weeks and finals this week. I am going in for another surgery next week and will be able to check email late in the week. I'll be pretty much out of commission for the summer, but they'll be able to take care of most shipping. So, if I dropped the ball on anything, please BUG ME ! I'll reply to emails ASAP, but please, no phone calls next week.

RDI PowerLite 110 and OpenStep - watchdog-reset

by ian.finder＠gmail.com

Hi folks, So I recently made a very poor trade for an RDI PowerLite 110 under the assumption that it could run NeXTstep or OpenStep, as allegedly RDI supplied the PowerLite with this OS in some configurations. The PowerLite is essentially an SS5 in a chunky, ugly laptop. When I boot the OpenStep and NeXTstep installers however, at the second stage loader I get a "watchdog-reset" message from OBP. Ultimately it's the same issue as discussed here: http://www.nextcomputers.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=3153&sid=b8cb75adb72457… Any hope in getting this to run? Any ideas out there? Or am I stuck with a fat ugly wannabe SparcBook 3? (I have a few of the 3GX/3TX family which seem like far nicer machines, the only reason I wanted this RDI P.O.S. Is the weitek framebuffer in the SparcBooks isn't supported by OS/NS, but the CG6 in the RDI supposedly is. What a garbage machine RDI produced with this one... Thanks, - Ian

Hawk Disk Drive

Jim wrote: From: jwsmobile <jws at jwsss.com> Subject: GE disk drives on ebay, one badged Datacraft GE-14-Hawk-Drive-23991-47d266933G3 http://www.ebay.com/itm/261895292646 One of these systems really appears to be a CDC drive, but the other one is badged Datacraft 5208, and doesn't look familiar. Any idea on what it is? Looks like something that would fit a collection of storage devices as a unique item, given that it is 14" removable. This page implies it is a CDC drive, but I've not seen one with the front this one has. http://www.mfarris.com/pack/datacraft.html thanks Jim --------------------------------------------------------------------- Couldn't view the item on eBay - got the message that it was removed. However the page you sent for Datacraft 4441 shows it to be a CDC Hawk drive. The 9425 was first made by NCR. It moved from California to Oklahoma when CPI and MPI were formed. The early version 9425 Cartridge Disk Drive was not a good product. It was re-engineered into the 9427H, code named Hawk. Both were 5MB fixed, 5MB removeable cartridge. Available as a rack mount or stand alone cabinet. There were 4 different types of plug in interfaces available. As near as I can remember, there were around 350 different configurations in production. Most were variations on the color(s) of the skins. But there were also options for sector count, power supplies, front name plate, terminators, cables, etc. Without the original configuration data, it is hard to look at a Hawk and tell what was in it and who was the OEM customer. Customer base was like a who's who of 1970s - minicomputers to early microcomputers. There were even a few S-100 controllers for it There was a 2 disk fixed only version called the Falcon. Really brings back the memories. Billy

Tadpole UNIX: TP-IX

by plamenspam＠afterpeople.com

Hello, Does anyone has TP-IX/68k or TP-IX/88k tapes or preinstalled disk? I have a bunch of 68k based TP32, found the documentation and original EPROM. And another board TP-880 which can run even more exotic release TP-IX/88k. Thanks, Plamen
