Anyone in the list has a copy of PowerPrint 2.5.2 from GDT Software? It's a collection of printer drivers for the Mac for non-Apple printers that works under System 6.0.7. I am particularly looking at a driver for an HP 2225D (the serial version of the ThinkJet). It is said that GDT had a one. Marc

Picked up tandy 1000 TX

by lyokoboy0＠gmail.com

I picked up a tandy 1000 TX with a color CM 11 monitor. Both are in the original boxes with keyboard,monitor and the printer cable. It powers on but i can not seem to get it to boot from the floppy drive. Ive tried writing 720K boot disks from my windows computer but it is still not booting. Some better pictures to follow soon. I do not particularly need such a machine, and am open to trade or offers. If no one wants it perhaps it can be put to use as a BBS or something packet radio related over here. Also, the boxes both had us goverment stickers on them, kinda intersting. https://s20.postimg.org/fr7iox7kt/image3.jpg --Devin

looking at buying a pocket PC / PDA

by mark＠wickensonline.co.uk

I'd second the Z88. A lot of people get put off by the keyboard but it actually works really well, and I'm a proper mechanical keyboard snob. You get can a proper turn of speed up on it.

The Cambridge Z88 is an excellent machine and they are still being sold new in box. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambridge_Z88 Lorry

NEC 4164-12

by ethan.dicks＠gmail.com

Hi, Emanuel, I have a quantity of 4164 DRAM from the Comboard days, new in tube. It is likely to mostly be 150ns and I don't know the brands until I dig it out, but I will check when I get home. If it matches what you need, I'm happy to send some to you. -ethan On Oct 28, 2017 12:32, "emanuel stiebler via cctalk" <cctalk at classiccmp.org> wrote: Hi all, anybody has some spare in the bin, he doesn't need? Looking for 18 pieces, preferably NEC, -12. Thanks!

TVTropes mention of a certain computer magazine

by echristopherson＠gmail.com

I was just wasting time with TVTropes and, on the page http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FandomBerserkButton, came across this quote: The editor of one early (late 1970s) British computer magazine persistently claimed that the difference between compilers and interpreters was "academic", even in the face of corrections from knowledgeable readers, until one month he learned the hard way just how wrong he was, by wasting three pages of the mag on a worthless hex-dump of the workspace of a BASIC interpreter. The mag didn't last very much longer after that issue. Does anyone know what magazine this was? I'm not sure I understand what the hex dump thing is all about. -- Eric Christopherson

Anyone know who does 'decmuseum.org', PDP-5 pictures

by COURYHOUSE＠aol.com

Hi Noel - http://www.dvq.com/ is the master site it seems.. I goggled dvg and dec as it said it was copyrighted dvg I figured that would show up elsewhere and it did. Ed# _www.smecc.org_ (http://www.smecc.org) In a message dated 10/28/2017 5:43:37 A.M. US Mountain Standard Time, cctalk at classiccmp.org writes: Does anyone know who does this site: http://decmuseum.org/index.html I looked, and didn't see anything in the site itself, and doing a 'whois' didn't turn up anything useful. The site has some really nice PDP-5 photos which I was wondering if that person could/would put in the public domain, so I can use them for a PDP-5 article I'm working on for Wikipedia and the CHWiki. So I'd like to get in contact with them. Noel
