This one shows plenty of wear, however. It's mounted on a piece of masonite with a socket for the one edge connector, a little bracket for a couple of 1/8" phone plugs (tape connections), an expansion port (Centronics-type, I assume this is where it was cabled up to a modified Selectric) and a terminal strip for power. The LED's have had sockets installed under them, since I assume the originals burned out. The 6502 also is socketed. This KIM was used by Stan Ockers and Jim Butterfield while writing the "First Book of KIM". Stan would take it, in the little briefcase he gave me along with it, to a computer club meeting in Chicago where a guy had an IBM Selectric that he had modified to work as a printer. Stan would load the programs he, Jim, and their partner (sorry -- don't have my FBOK in front of me and the other name escapes me) had written, and then print them out on the Selectric. These printouts were then cut and pasted into the layout for the book. Is the bottom numbe on the die cover the date code? If so, my 6502 is dated 1576. The thing is, regardless of how much they sell for on e-pay, it means so much more to me that Stan sat down and talked to me for an hour and a half about the book and computing in those days and then gave me his KIM that I couldn't think about selling it.

Can't help much, I'm using Netscape, the program blamed for much of the damage (but I've got it set to send plain text, seems to work, at least I've got no complaints and enough corespondents on plain vt100 or telnet [including _me_ at work), and your text stream was screwed from Netscape and telnet both -- the loss of formatting took place earlier. I guess I could try Eudora, except it would mean booting WABI which can't always find the IP address my ISP assigns my Linux system -- and Eudora is listed on my docs as not working with my vintage of WINE. -- Ward Griffiths WARNING: The Attorney General has determined that Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms can be hazardous to your health -- and get away with it. --===============2486215605546949877==--
