And another item to go: an RS232 to/from GPIB interface Small metal box, 220V supply, contains a minimal 8085 system with the expected gpib interface IC's Etched on the PCB is "Hopp systems", no further info available. I have already decided not to bother with GPIB anymore, so off it goes. Do not know how or if it works. Those who want tp pay something for this get preference, but other may apply also ! ( + shipping from Switezerland of course..) Jos

HP92160 fanfold thermal paper available

by jdr_use＠bluewin.ch

Once more cleaning up, I came across 1300 sheets of fanfold thermal paper, which I will never use, since I do not have the thermal printer it is intended for.Am I right in believing that this paper is getting rare ? For the (rounded up,,,) cost of shipping from Switzerland it is yours. Jos Dreesen

MINC-11 (was Re: Collection reduction, part II the sequel)

I also have the manual set, but scanned the mini-MINC specific parts only so far (http://electrickery.xs4all.nl/comp/miniminc/doc/). > -tony > Fred Jan

OT : hpcc mini-conference next saturday

by ard＠p850ug1.demon.co.uk

Next Saturday (11th September 2010) there is an HPCC mini-conference in London. This is not a classic computing event really (which is why it's OT), but it is somewhat traditional for one of the talks to cover a classic HP computer or calculator, and anyway, there will be older machines to look at... Non-members of HPCC are welcome to attend, but please let a member of the committee (e.g. me) know if you are likely to come. More details are on the hpcc web site, http://www.hpcc.org/ -tony

Ebay store stuff.

by jws＠jwsss.com

I was looking for other things in the IBM area, and stumbled across a store with a lot of cheap (by classic computing standards) stuff. this Adaptec SCSI to Qic-36 is $24 + 10 shipping, as an example 330221339704 If you have a lot of time, there a lot of parts such as some PS2 controller, and so forth if you look thru the entire store. I made it 4 pages (800 items) before I got tired tonight, but will look at more. The PS2 to QIC was $5 bucks for instance. If anyone has dealt with the vendor, post here if you like good or bad. I'm local to the place and may track them down and see if they will let the public noodle thru their pile. Jim

Polymorphics 8813 on VCGM

by marvin＠west.net

I just listed a Polymorphics 8813 on VCGM for a 2 day auction. I'll relist once if it doesn't sell, but RL will be getting in the way of dealing with it after that. http://marketplace.vintage-computer.com/auction_details.php?name=Polymorphi…

I know this isn't particularly old yet...

by rescue＠hawkmountain.net

I'm looking for guide rails for the 5.25" drive bays for Chenbro cases (many use the same rails, mine is an SR20969 case.... I rescued this system from being recycled (2 dual core Opterons), however it is missing the front plastics and the guide rails.... You can find a p/n and buy the front plastic... but I can't find a part number for these rails (seems a shame to scrap a decent chassis over lack of device guide rails). Sorry this isn't a classic box... but I'm not having any luck finding these and was hoping maybe someone out there has something in there local scrap pile.... -- Curt
