Agree about Varian trademark.
In 1937 the Varian brothers developed the Klystron tube.
In 1965 Eitel-McCullough (EIMAC) merged with Varian Associates, but in 1995 the EIMAC division was ?spun off? (now part of CPI).
In 1999, the company was reorganized into three distinct businesses:
Varian Medical Systems Inc., Varian Semiconductor Equipment Associates Inc., and Varian, Inc.

All,
pursuant to the modem discussion the last couple of weeks, i searched briefly and came up with:
Global Village Teleport 56kbps fax/modem
in original box (opened and inspected, not tested), includes power supply and software on CD (for Mac OS 8).
Cable connects to the Mac serial port (round DIN connector)
For cost of shipping; I?ll add some bubble-wrap to the box to kee things from rattling inside and if you are concerned about the original box I?ll add another layer outside.

>From the smartphones that sit in our pockets to an array of technologies we take for granted today, many of the ideas that now dominate the tech industry and our day-to-day lives were born in 1989 at a Silicon Valley startup most of us have never heard of General Magic.
Extraordinary creativity, remarkable breakthroughs, fierce competition, hubris and heartbreaking betrayal dominated behind the scenes of General Magic. While some never recovered from the failure that accompanied its downfall and bankruptcy, others went on to soar. The lessons learned at General Magic were instrumental in the creation of the iPod, iPhone, Android, eBay, even in the corridors of President Obama???s White House. And although General Magic died, the concepts and the people who worked there went on to change how the world connects today.
Described by Forbes as ???The most important dead company in Silicon Valley??? and combining rare archive footage with contemporary stories of the General Magicians today, this documentary tracks the progress of anytime, anywhere communication from a thing of sci-fi fiction to our modern day reality.
Join us for a special screening of this fascinating documentary followed by a panel discussion with former "magicians" Marc Porat, Andy Hertzfeld, Michael Stern, and Megan Smith.
Exhibits are free to all event attendees.
Join us for Friday Nights @CHM before and after the program! Enjoy food and drinks from Catered Too and extended exhibit hours from 5 to 9 p.m.

Christian,
I absolutly agree with David s post.
Back in the ' '70 when I was maintaining 3 x HP 2116 B running 24/24 7/7 FOR around 10 YEARS,
the ONLY memory related problem that I got was traced to a faulty transistor !!
( But I do not recall exactly, may be it was on a Driver Inhbit Card )
Anyway, from this only one case , not statisticaly signifiant ;-) the problem was a Tx, not a C.I.
Wish you the same ...
I have Skunkware 7 (1997) and Skunkware 98 (1998) if they will do. What is
your desire?

I have an MVME162 processor and for no good reason, other than an
intellectual exercise, I've decided to try and get OS-9 68000 running on
it. Mostly this has been a pretty simple exercise, since the necessary ROM
images are on the Internet, however, the one thing that I can't seem to
make work is SLIP (or PPP for that matter).
I have the MVME board connected via an RS232 connection to a Raspberry PI.
PPP doesn't work at all but SLIP works partially. I can PING from the PI to
the MVME and from the MVME to the PI. I can send TCP traffic in both
directions. I can send UDP traffic in both directions. When I try to start
a telnet session from the PI to the MVME, it seems like the session is
established:
Trying 192.168.2.2...
Connected to 192.168.2.2.
Escape character is '^]'.
But I never see the login prompt on the PI. Pretty much the same thing
applies to other telnet clients including Windows, NetBSD VAX and 211BSD on
my PDP-11. Furthermore, I see that the connection handler in OS-9,
telnetdc, is started and also login is started
20 0 0.0 128 48.00k 0 e 0.03 0:00 telnetdc <pks01
21 20 0.0 128 24.00k 0 e 0.02 0:00 login <>>>pks01
40 0 0.0 128 52.00k 0 s 0.12 25:42 telnetd <>>>nil
but I never get a login prompt at the PI.
Any suggestions?
I am excited about this!! Tim Paterson, of Seattle Computer Products, is
speaking at Vintage Computer Festival XIII next weekend (August 4-5).
The event as always is at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View,
California.
Tim created QDOS - Quick & Dirty Operating System -- which was the basis
for Microsoft's MS-DOS. Tim rarely (if ever?) gives historical lectures,
so this is a coup for the hobby.
