Next 'stack' of computers to go, IBM p7's - not classics this time

by jnc＠mercury.lcs.mit.edu

> From: Mark Linimon > Would love to if you can change your mind on shipping? https://www.pakmail.com/ Like I said, they will come pick things up, as they sit - perfect for Pete's situation. And from my experience, not _always_ cheap, but _usually_ pretty good (e.g. a large PDP-11 in a 19" rack from Toronto to Virginia was about $500, which for international freight on something that big is pretty good.)

Tennecomp

by kylevowen＠gmail.com

Al uploaded some of my Tennecomp docs onto Bitsavers: http://bitsavers.org/pdf/tennecomp/ He also already had some brochures, which are very interesting as well. Anyone else have some Tennecomp stuff? I've got more stuff to scan, including a bunch of schematics (size C paper, for the most part), as well as a few other manuals I believe. I'd be curious to hear any of their history, especially because of their location in Oak Ridge, TN. I will also photograph some of my Tennecomp things (my Minidek, some Omnibus boards, etc.) at some point. Thanks, Kyle P.S. My Minidek came with some carts, but the pressure pads are all rotted. A cursory glance online didn't turn up any source of replacement pads in stock for Fidelipacs/Stereo-Paks. Anyone have any suggestions, or tips on making your own?

DEC COM, MEM, ETC.

by useddec＠gmail.com

I've been doing some sorting looking for some boards for a list member, and found a few items I will probably never use. Shipping from 61820, and overseas upon request. Stateside shipping is $16 for as many hex or quad height boards as you want, and $11 for as many quads as you want. Looking for offers, the more you want, the better. M7800 DL11 M7819 DZ11 M8202 DMC11 M8203 DMP11 M8206 DMC11 M8637 MSV11 M8639-YA, YB RQDX M8722 MS11-MB 11/44 M8728 11/70 MOS M8743 MS11-PB Boards only, no cables unless part of board. This is only the tip of the iceberg, feel free to ask about others. I do have one 11/70 memory box left. I think it is MOS, and I will check if requested. Many thanks, Paul

HP Series 9000 early 1980’s computer hardware

by ljw-cctech＠ljw.me.uk

The following was sent to the list as an attachment so I am forwarding it. Please don't reply to me but rather to Mr Parker. I have removed his full address and phone number. To:? classiccmp.org Re: HP Series 9000 early 1980?s computer hardware Hi, I own several HP 9020 work stations along with peripheral gear associated with that series. That gear includes several types of hard drives and tape drives, standalone monitors and even an impact 132 character line printer. I also have a CPU, that I think is a 9000/550. Not a work station but a more powerful CPU using the same technology as the 9000/520. Plus cables and extra circuit boards used in that series equipment. All of the stuff worked the last time it was fired up. I also have the disks and tapes for the software shipped with that equipment. I am getting along in years and rather leaving it to be trashed in the future I am looking for a new home for the stuff. So can you suggest someone who might be interested in it? Sincerely, Charles D. Parker Howell, MI 48844 Chas.parker at comcast.net -- Lawrence Wilkinson lawrence at ljw.me.uk The IBM 360/30 page http://www.ljw.me.uk/ibm360

Looking for info on "Soft Tape Forth" for the Apple IIe

by dkelvey＠hotmail.com

I've gotten a copy of this Forth from someplace. I was going to play with it some but it has so many non-standard words, I ws hoping someone might have glossary of words for this Forth. Also, it came with a number of game programs that used some graphics output. I was wondering which graphics board it was intended to work with. Dwight

Unknown CDC unit , looks like a drum memory ?

by jos.dreesen＠greenmail.ch

Visited an older collector recently, and in his shed he has a strange thing, labeled CDC, that somehow looks like a drum memory, but then again not ( drum looks too small to be usefull ) The controller that goes with is? a transistor based? monster on countless small pluginboards. Pictures on? ftp://ftp.dreesen.ch/Unknown_CDC_Stuff Anyone can identify this ? Jos

Datasheet for Signetics spc16/10 ( Single chip Philips P800 processor ) ?

by jos.dreesen＠greenmail.ch

Subject says it all : anyone has datasheets for this obscure single chip Philips P800-type microprocessor ? Cant find anything but a student's report from 1981, and it is not listed in the Signetics databooks of the time ( +/- 1980) ( this is not related to the General Automation SPC16 family) Jos
