Does anyone have the Apple ][ or Commodore software for the X-10
Powerhouse CP290 computer interface?
I found one of these yesterday and would like to play around with the
software depicted on the box.

I've got a road trip to Chicago, Illinois coming up in a few weeks...
Are there any potential sources for DEC MicroVaxen / QBus / early Alpha
bits in the area that merit checking??
Thanks....

Mine had (it's now been donated to an 11/34 I traded) a backplane with a
normal harness and a pair of AMP connectors.

Which is why the one I'm planning to replace it with is the same body style

Not unless that denotes an 8-valve injection version ;-)

To make good on an old promise and since
someone really needed them I've scanned
the Intel 8008 datasheets and put the up for
grabs on my website.
Look in the files-section of my website (folder 8008) at

Have Fun!

apple
be
a/ux
NeXT
sgi

Trying to figure out what this one is:
I think it is an Apple built memory board, has two rows of ram chips, 32
total, PLCC custom chip and a 24 pin (rom?) chip at the bafk end of the
board. Number silk screened is 670-0024-A
I'm wondeing if I can just plug and play, or if there is some sort of
software driver to access this memory? any web pages on it???

That's why I said you need a Saab 900. My 900i will take a single
full-height DEC rack (on its side). The hatchback won't *quite* shut, but
nothing sticks out.

Hello,
Awhile back I found a box of SCO Opendesktop on QIC 24 tape. Well I
can't it to load off the tape!! I get all the way through to the point
it wants the tape, but it doesn't find anything. I can hear the drive
working. I've never used a tape drive before.... any ideas what might
be wrong? The tape was un-opened when I got it.

No, no, no, you want a Saab 900 (classic, not the newer body shape) ;-)

I have the machine (I think it's a 1600), but I don't even have the
software ;)

AFAIK, it is called a "face plate".
But then again, as non-English speaker, I could be wrong.

Chris, is the little wife making you clear out _everything_? Tell
her I said thanks ;-) BTW, did you guys make it to Mystic?
Yeah, the Corona is a neat looking little box. Haven't had a chance
to do anything with it yet, though. Have to build a workbench/desk for
computer hacking first.

Actually, the Kombi stands a bit taller than a station wagon,
but doesn't sit as high above the road as an SUV... IIRC...
sort-of a cross between them, with some genes from a VW Microbus
and Land Rover thrown in (although Kombis predate the Microbus)...
I'm told many are outfitted for camping excursions.

Does anyone happen to have a copy of the V2.5.2 updater for DAVE? After
about 2 1/2 years I'm finally using the copy of 2.5 I bought, and it looks
like Thursby no longer has the updater available for download (instead it
looks like they want you to buy a 3.1 upgrade).

I have a bunch of NeXT stuff, sgi stuff, and some sun and apple stuff. Let
me know if you have a copy of 6.5 for the o2 (r5k), octane, indigo 2
(r4400, and r10k), or indy's.
Thanks,

I've scoured the net, even joined the URGrid mail-list, read the Tandy specs
closely, but can't find any info as to what the flashing red battery indicator
means on my Grid 1755. Even the Grid proponents pass on it. It works but
the battery had gone belly-up. I bought a "new" battery and for a while the
former orange changed to green but later on changed to the flashing red. It
accepts minimal charge but not enough to power the HD when off charge and
displays the low-power steady red indicator before dying. If it was simply
indicating a dead battery the old one wouldn't display a steady orange. Could
it be lack of enough amperage from my adaptor to be able to charge ?
I submit myself to the collective knowledge of the list.
