mc68010+mc68451 Unix source?

by seefriek＠gmail.com

I've got a half dozen different source trees for mc680x0 Unixen, but nothing for an mc68010 CPU + mc68451 MMU. I know Unisoft did some. I don't know if the Motorola ports (like for the VME/10) were Unisoft or done internally. Did any '010+'451 source trees survive to escape into the wild? KJ

Picked up Commodore Amiga 2000

by COURYHOUSE＠aol.com

have a unit with toaster but we need a keyboard. it sets flat not a tower. Ed# _www.smecc.org_ (http://www.smecc.org) fills history in 2 areas we cover - computers and video production In a message dated 10/4/2016 9:58:46 P.M. US Mountain Standard Time, nf6x at nf6x.net writes: Congratulations on rescuing the 2000! I wanted one pretty badly when I was working in an Amiga dealership in the late 1980s, but had a 1000. I still don't have a 2000, but I've scratched that itch with a 3000 that I got a couple years ago. I still have my old 1000, but haven't powered it up for a very long time. It's overdue for a cleaning-up and resurrection. > On Oct 4, 2016, at 21:32, TeoZ <teoz at neo.rr.com> wrote: > > Anyway the XT and 286 Bridgeboards are not that expensive but anything faster sure is. The Bridgeboards were indeed an odd kludge. I don't remember if we actually sold any in the store I worked in, but I think we had at least one installed in an Amiga 2000 for demo purposes. I quit looking for Bridgeboards over a year ago when eBay and I started seeing other people, but at the time I had little luck finding any. I wouldn't mind having any working Bridgeboard to try out in my Amiga 3000 just for kicks, but I wouldn't expect it to be of much practical use. So if there's a hidden source of cheap XT and 286 Bridgeboards out there, I might like to acquire one. Devin would get first dibs on any that turn up, of course. I do have something vaguely Bridgeboard-esque: I have one of the SunPCi cards in my Sun Ultra 60. I think I set up DOS and NT virtual disks for it, but I haven't found any practical use for it. It's just a neat example of the wacky things that were kludged together for folks such as engineers who needed a UNIX workstation for their main job, but also needed access to a PC for things like Word. Now that I think of it, I haven't exactly found a practical use for the Sun it's installed in, either. :) -- Mark J. Blair, NF6X <nf6x at nf6x.net> http://www.nf6x.net/

Wanted: IBM 5324 Monitor

by cctalk＠ibm51xx.net

Hello Everyone, I was wondering if anyone out on the list has (or knows of someone who has) an IBM 5324 monitor? This would be the monitor that goes with the IBM 5324 system (the tower version of the 5322/System 23/DataMaster). I have spare parts from a 5322 including a working display unit which I can transplant into a nonworking external monitor case. However, my preference would be for a clean/working monitor > non-working but clean monitor > working beat up monitor > beggars can't be choosers! Thanks. -Ali
