Some late fifties HP measurement equipment available. ( Switzerland )

by jos.dreesen＠greenmail.ch

All, the following late fifties HP equipment is available in Switzerland. Stored in less than ideal conditions, but seem otherwise quite OK. Feel free to forward to more fitting mailing list / fora. Not my equipment, my only interest in this is saving these from the scrapheap. HEWLETT PACKARD TIME INTERVAL UNIT 526B HEWLETT PACKARD ELECTRONIC COUNTER 524C HEWLETT PACKARD DIGITAL RECORDER 560A ( Possibly a second HP524(b) , unsure of this ) I will forward email adresses tio the seller, up to you to complete. He expects to raise some money, unsure if realistic or not. Jos Dreesen

Free: Dell Poweredge 2950

by sieler＠allegro.com

Anyone interested in a free dell poweredge 2950? (Free for pickup in Redwood City, CA, USA) Two 73 (?) GB SAS drives, some amount of RAM. Worked the last time it was powered on, about 2 years ago. No idea how much memory or other features. It was bought (used) to be a spare for another Dell, but once we realized the original Dell used SATA drives, we never used this one. We're moving offices, and this has to find a home or a scrapheap. (It was introduced about 2006, so that makes the 10 year classic cutoff :) thanks, Stan

JLS Vidtek Big Board Xerox 820

by mso＠exoss.net

Hi, It was my company that produced that and I was one of the designers... JLS Computers (aka Vidtek). produced in Toronto similar to SBC BB1 Enrico Lazzerini enrico.lazzerini at email.it Mon Feb 9 16:30:06 CST 2015 Previous message: Memorex MRX IV 6250 BPI SuperReel Tape on sale - 4 reels maybe new Next message: begging drivers/docs for obscure old PC/Mac hardware Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ] Hi, I'm a bit curious on this old historical motherboard derived from original Ferguson Bigboard 1. Is there anybody who have it and he can send a pic of it? Or Is there anybody who can describe it? I not found anything on internet, just all I report below: Micro/Access ????????????? | Toronto, Ontario????? (1983-1993) ??????? SYSOP | Max Southall ???? SOFTWARE | Custom by Bob Kamins and Max Southall ???? COMMENTS | "The Micro/Access BBS system grew out of the need to ????????????? | service the product line of the JLS/Vidtek Big Board ????????????? | project. The JLS Big Board was a reincarnation with ????????????? | hardware and software enhancements of the original ????????????? | Ferguson Big Board Z80 single board computer system sold ????????????? | to hobbyists. Redesigned by Joe L. Sutherland, with input ????????????? | from Bob Kamins, with later hardware, firmware and ????????????? | software fixes by Max Southall, it was a solid CP/M-80 ????????????? | based system which also was the basis for the Xerox 820 ????????????? | series. Customers (or any others) of the Big Board were ????????????? | charged $50 a year for access, which eventually included ????????????? | email access to the then research-oriented internet. ????????????? | There were hundreds of paying customers.? The BBS ????????????? | software based on Bob Kamins' work was written in ????????????? | Microsoft's BASIC, and compilation was with Microsoft's ????????????? | M80 compiler. <p> "Eventually Max Southall completely ????????????? | rewrote Stuart Lynne's (yes, the later ICANN chairman) ????????????? | UUPC program and incorporated an email program interface, ????????????? | all in assembler, which connected the Micro/Access BBS ????????????? | users via UUCP to Unix-based internet-based ????????????? | communications. <p> "Prior to 1985, the system was known ????????????? | online as the Vidtek system, which grew out of ????????????? | manufacturing video and CP/M boards for the Apple ][ ????????????? | clone systems. SCSI hard disk subsystems were ????????????? | manufactured and sold for the Big Board and sold all over ????????????? | the world, and the BBS used the same hardware as was sold ????????????? | to customers." - Max Southall Regards Enrico

WTB: Altair 680, Any Condition, Any Configuration

by systems.glitch＠gmail.com

All, I'm looking for an Altair 680. I've been working with Jeff Albrecht's A680 during the RAM board design process, and would like to continue working on a few things for the 680, but I'd also like to send Jeff's machine back to him! Configuration is not particularly important to me. I'd like something with a non-rev 0 motherboard in it if possible -- the easiest way to tell is that there will be a slot for the expansion riser. Front panel vs. turnkey, branding, etc. are not important to me. I'd potentially be interested in even an empty case! Thanks, Jonathan
