Wanted: ASM-48 for Intellec MDS-2

by mainpatents＠gmail.com

The 8041 has the same pinout as the Intel 8741 programmable. A Pro-Log M980 PROM Programmer with a PM 9054 personality module can read out the programs inside. I did a lot of Intel 8741 Development back in the day and even reverse engineered the PIO in an Intel MDS-225. I have a MDS-225 now I'm getting going from pieces.

54 TK50 tapes on eBay

by robert.jarratt＠ntlworld.com

This just popped up today: http://www.ebay.com/itm/LOT-OF-54-USED-VINTAGE-DEC-DIGITAL-COMPACTAPE-TK50-D ATA-TAPE-CARTRIDGES-SOFTWARE-/221774909736? It is a bit expensive in my view and shipping to the UK is too much, but I thought there *might* be some old versions of DEC software on some of those tapes. I thought of asking about the DEC software myself, but as I know I wouldn't bid it wouldn't be right for me to ask. Anyone in the USA interested enough to find out what historical DEC software there might be and recover the tapes (if possible)? Regards Rob

The scrappers are here, clearing out the warehouse. I saved a box of old DEC and HP boards. First $100 plus about $35 UPS ground shipping takes them home (in CONUS).

PDP-11/74 MP

by Paul_Koning＠Dell.com

A correspondent just pointed me to a nice collection of photos of a (the?) 11/74 MP system: http://oboguev.livejournal.com/2696291.html I assume this is the one at DEC used by the RSX-11M+ group for their multiprocessor support work. As far as I know these didn?t become a product. I remember the name of the machine as ?Cerberus?, not sure what that label ?daemon? refers to. Maybe a DECnet node name? paul

Hi I received a DECpc 433 Workstation today with SCSI expansion box. It's a small system which reminds me of the VAX VLC, but not quite. I've not been able to find any manuals online, does anyone have anything? Regards, Pontus.

Oregon Software Pascal (was RE: RT11 / RSTS-E games

by jwest＠classiccmp.org

John wrote.... ---- I'm still looking for Oregon Software Pascal as well... ---- I said I would look, I did, and it was fruitful. I have in my hands an original distribution fedex shipping box from Oregon software to my high school (Saint Louis University High) containing: Oregon Software Pascal-2 Software Development System version 2.1F for RT-11 release package checklist (RN-121, august 1988): Installation & Release notes Oregon Language Letter, Summer 1988, announcing two new compilers (Oregon Modula-2 and Oregon C++) 8 SS/SD RX01 format disks containing P-2 RT-11 v2.1F (original, Oregon software labels, including my high schools site/license number) Oregon Software Field Report form (4 carbon copy) Misc Notes of my own from a skim of the above: The compiler version here runs under RT-11 v5 or later The compiler can run under XM or SJ monitors Programs compiled with the compiler can run under FB, BL, SJ, or XM Minimum requirements: EIS. P-2 uses FPP hardware or simulated floating point software (FIS). Also need 3500 blocks to install, and during compilation about 500 blocks are used for temporary storage. Computers with only flexible disk systems do not have enough storage. I have no idea if these diskettes are still readable. I know my high school was fastidious about making a copy and then locking the masters away so these disks likely only saw one read. I do know that they used this software extensively, and there may well be other copies of these floppies around here. I'd love to post images of these diskettes, but I don't know the status of Oregon Software and the IP situation. So in the interest of completeness, anyone have other RT-11 versions of other Oregon Software's compilers? I also found original S&H distribution copies of TSX+ v5, v6, and v6.2 (again, stamped with my high schools license number). Best, J

HP board id?

by COURYHOUSE＠aol.com

Dave - - actually there should be a scan out it out there already... it is of the same vintage as the hp minicomputer handbook with the old hp-2115 on the front.... Here I found a link to the early version! just enter any word in the human checker thing and you can download the pdf! there are other hp 2000 things there too at that main url http://www.hpmuseum.net/capcha/freecap_wrap.php?r=1124 posting the cc also to rest of list for those that would like this also... Yea our old one if we opened it to flat bed scan it it would be a sheaf of lose pages I fear... but this pdf should be good for info. We love HP 2000 stuff here it was part of my work in the old days fixing and selling therm and selling time on them. We still have our first 2000 system we bought but we NEED THE 2883 disk drive and the hp version of the GE terminet 300 to put with it.

NYT writer wants to write about creative collectors

by tosteve＠yahoo.com

I received this email - contact Alex below if interested: =================================================================== I'm a reporter for the New York Times and I'm working on a story about vintage tech/computer equipment, particularly when used as items to be displayed, or as home-decor. Do you know have any collectors of vintage tech who have used it in any creative way as objects around the house? If you have any thoughts on the topic, I'm all ears. Thanks! -- Alex Williams Reporter The New York Times 212 556 1158 ===================================================================
