This reminds me of a recent ad of a gent looking for his old (70s) HP
calculator, which he had lost years back - he had the serial number and was
advertising for THAT PARTICULAR UNIT. Now *that* would be an amazing find!

<Yeh, and two, almost three are numbered in succession... how often does

<How often does that happen?
Early on they were allocated one per store! Also
Board part number 1700069A was the first production model, the 1700069D
was second and later the 1700069G. The A version required a fair amount
of green wire from the factory to make it work.
Below 10 and the first are of interest more than the nth copy unless that
happend to be the last copy.

My favourite subject!
I have Mattel Aquarius II computers serial #8, #10, #68
I have it's colour printer serial #2
I think early serial #s are very collectible, myself.
YOu can see all my serial #s for the Aquarius items at

Lynx worked fine too. Suggestive?

Hi guys!
I have a need to burn new versions for a Always IN-2K scsi card using
Xlinx chipset.
Currently aspi driver is ingoring the card because the serial eprom
containing firmware is old. I have new verions sitting on my HD
along with new bios for the 27C256 chip.
If you have one chip to sell and have equipment to burn that serial
chip, that would be great! I can supply the 27C256-200ns or if you
have one rated at 150ns for a price, burn it also.
The serial Eprom is:
AMD, am1736, DC, 031YEWH (date code?)
The bios is 27C256 at 150ns.
Thanks!
This card also is nearing 10 years so there!

The problem is that I can't tell how to attach another ribbon to the
LCD, and the circuit board end is surface mount soldered. Ideas?

Same here. I have a M6800D1 and MIKBUG but no source listing. The
function is a very simple program loader/debugger. What was interesting
is the code was written so that routines like TTYin, TTYout, PRINTCHR
and PRINTnum could be called from external programs. Saving some coding
effort.

A certain TI-85 (which I will try to fix, but is not mine) has a
strange problem. The display does not display a strip of graphics.
Everything else is fine, but about 20 rows just don't work. They DO
work sometimes, but are then distorted. The LCD is connected to the
board with a ridiculously long ribbon connector, folded several times,
made out of thin plastic. Any ideas?

NONE of those should be very high, since these are the wires going
directly to the electronics. One has a label "+5v".
I am pretty sure it's not dangerous at all. If you fry the system,
you can take mine - I can't give you my hands if you blow them off,
though....
