Wanted: Wyse WY-100 terminal manuals

by legalize＠xmission.com

I'm looking for manuals on the Wyse WY-100 terminal (user's guide, refrence manual, service manual, etc.). If anyone has them, or knows where they are available online, please email me. A little googling didn't turn anything up. This is a terminal from 1981 with split-screen capability: <http://terminals.classiccmp.org/wiki/index.php/Wyse_WY-100> -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" free book <http://tinyurl.com/d3d-pipeline> The Computer Graphics Museum <http://ComputerGraphicsMuseum.org> The Terminals Wiki <http://terminals.classiccmp.org> Legalize Adulthood!

IBM PC/XT pieces

by brain＠jbrain.com

If you can file this away somewhere and consider it from time to time, I'd appreciate it. If someone finds a battered PC or XT or something that can function as a PC/XT, I'd love hearing about it. All I am seeing on eBay are collector-grade machines (with prices to match), and I'm just looking to have a permanent machine here to test XT keymappings and such with. An XT SBC would be ideal, if such a thing were ever made. I have a machine here at present (have not forgotten about you dabone), but at some point, I need to secure my own system for testing.

contemporary XT software?

by jules.richardson99＠gmail.com

Now that I seem to finally have a working XT clone, does anyone have suggestions for interesting (and available!) contemporary software to run on it? It'd be nice to load it up with a few games and productivity apps of the era. It's only got 512K of RAM (although I may have an expansion board somewhere), but it does have a 10MHz 8088 (well, if I can work out how to kick it into high-speed mode) and I've got a VGA card in there right now. I'm not sure if anyone is maintaining a software repository for early x86 PCs (and maybe what is out there will target '286 and above anyway)? cheers Jules

MFM emulator update

by gerardcjat＠free.fr

Very interesting !! David, would you elaborate on >> The IMI 77xx are neat looking drives. >> ( English is not my native language, and I am not sure I fully understand the implied meaning of this statement ) This is anyway a very interesting post as I am building David's interface right now ( last parts to arrive in a few days ... ) and my plans are to use it with an IMI 7720 drive !! Knowing the interface is a bit non standard and that I will have to modify "things". But, ** FIRST **, I will, I hope, make it works with a "standard" ST412 drive. --- Ce courrier ?lectronique ne contient aucun virus ou logiciel malveillant parce que la protection avast!

Signetics 8288

by brad＠bettercomputing.net

Hey guys, I am slowly acquiring parts for a retro build of Don Lancaster's TV Typewriter. I've scored quite a few chips, many surprisingly with early 1970s date codes. ?One I'm having trouble with though is the Signetics 8288 divide by 12.. cant seem to locate it. ?Anyone have a line on a supplier that might have these? Thanks! Sent from Samsung Mobile
