I am downsizing and have an HP 2105 available. It?s been stored well, but I cannot vouch as to its operability. I do not know off hand how much memory it has.
It is located in Saint Paul, MN.

I finally managed to pick up a logic analyser for a price I could justify.
It is a HP1630G and it comes with a number of pods. However the pods do not
seem to have the actual wires/probes. Is there a separate part number for
these that I should look for. There seem to be quite a few items like this:

alternatives?
Thanks

I'm trying to return to the computing days of yesteryear when people
hooked graphics terminals to VAXes.
I don't have a Tektronix graphics terminal but I do have a MicroVax II
and a laptop running Debian Linux. Up to now I've been using the laptop
as a console device and connecting to the Vax using minicom. I thought
that the laptop would be a natural as a Tektronix type terminal.
On the MicroVax I have just started with PGPLOT and MIIPS, which are
scientific plotting packages that run on Vaxes.
I would like to use the laptop to emulate a Tek terminal connected to
the Vax through a serial port, but there doesn't seem to be anything
available to do that. Does anyone know of such a thing?

Hi all -
Anyone have any technical information (manuals, schematics, etc.) for
the DEC DW11 UNIBUS->QBus interface? I'm curious to know what it's
capable of and what the requirements are, especially on the QBus side of
things. What kind of backplane is required? I assume it doesn't
support 22-bit QBus devices given the age of the interface (and the
complexity required to do so), but does it handle 18-bit devices, or
only 16?
I haven't found much technical information on it at all. Anyone have
any details to share?
Thanks,
Josh
Since, to my pleased surprise, this has been a runaway hit on
Facebook, I thought I'd reshare it here.
My friend Roger took a picture of this sculpture at the Jerwood
Gallery in Hastings on the south coast of England:

It's a piece called "A Mystery to Myself" by Keith Tyson.

This past week I managed to pick up a pdp 11/23. Excited to finally have a
qbus system, it is quite small compared to my 11/34.
Attached are some pictures showing what i picked up. I am in the process of
stress testing the power supply before turning it on. The whole machine was
quite dirty and is being cleaned out as well. A whole corner of the machine
corroded away, thankfully there is a metal shop around the corner with a
press, I am going to replace the corroded sides.

The classiccmp host will be going down tonight around 8pm. It should be back
up by 2am tomorrow.
This will affect the mailing list as well as any and all websites hosted by
the classiccmp server.
While we provide DNS for most of those websites, there are a few that still
maintain their own DNS elsewhere. For those folks, the new IP address of the
server will be 71.91.242.75
Best,
J
