Except...on a peculiar ISA dual-port serial card that HP made
for the early HP Vectras. One D?-9S like a PC/AT serial
port, one DB-25S. To be fair, HP put a plastic tag out one side
of the slot to remind you that this was a serial port.

When you say TRS-80, does that by any chance include TRS-80 Color
Computers? Did they also adopt the tape format, in addition to the
connector pinout?
At one time or another, I was struck by the similarity of the CoCo's
cassette format and the now-ancient Kansas City Standard. Were they
actually identical? Did RS implement the KCS for the CoCo, or was it
just something kinda similar? And if TRS-80-->CoCo and CoCo-->KCS,
does that mean that maybe IBM just adopted KCS instead of making up
their own format? (A shocking idea, I admit...)
This is not entirely a moot point, because I have a CoCo handy, and
an old KCS tape that I got almost by accident. I've been tempted to
just slap it in and see if the CoCo can read it, but from previous
discussions on the life cycle of mag tapes, I gather I might get only
one chance to read the data. I don't want to waste that one chance
until I am sure I have something that can actually read KCS.
Eventually, I suppose I'll just write my own loader and be done with
it. But it would be awfully nice if it was already done for me.
Cheers,

The ][+ also has different refresh circuitry for the DRAMs, and doesn't
need the configuration blocks found in ]['s.
The //e has a more comprehensive keyboard than the ][+ and can generate all
the ASCII characters from the keyboard.

Not quite; the C2N decks have TTL-level in/out and a motor control line,
all on a funny connector. The other three connections are +5V, ground, and
"switch", which is a contact that senses when the PLAY key is pressed.
They're controlled (at least in a PET) by part of a standard 6520 PIA
(Commodore's copy of a 6820).

I have one of the older Mac Monitors, the AppleColor High Resolution,
model MO401. It came out around the time the Mac II did (ca. 1987?) and
uses a monitor cable with a 15-pin plug.
Can this monitor be adapted for use with
a. Apple II
b. IBM PC's or clones
c. Amiga 1000
d. C-64?
Thanks!

*chuckle* Sam's been reading the propaganda again....
You've got companies making commercial use of FreeBSD and selling it
to mainstream customers too. And you know what? They aren't bound by
the GNU Public License to release (in some cases significantly
modified) source to anyone under any conditions if they don't want to.
Well, except for those parts of the typical stock FreeBSD system that
are encumbered by the GPL. You might note that the FreeBSD folks have
been careful to keep those separate in their source tree, and that it's
possible to have a running OS without those parts: it's not much of a
desktop user or development system but it'll get your packets where
they need to go.
Now that's something you can do with FreeBSD that you can't do with
Linux -- derive your own work without having to make the source
accessible outside your organization. Believe it or not, some
commmercial concerns think that this will better protect their
intellectual property, and in spite of what Stallman and some other
folks might like you to believe that is sometimes the right way to go
about it.
ObClassic: this model's been around a while, it's how a significant
portion of Wollongong's networking products worked. Though in those
days you needed a Unix source license from Western Electric so you
could get your hands on the BSD 4.[23] sources from which you could
derive your own work, which in Wollongong's case was porting to
other Unixes (and sometimes non-Unix OSs, like MPE).

There was a discussion on here a while back about whether IBM had ever made
cassette decks to attach to that port, and IIRC, the outcome was
inconclusive. If such a thing existed, certainly there were never many of
them. In general, the favorite commodity cassette recorder for the purpose
was one of the long Panasonics with the carrying handle.

Alright!!!! Let's get this thing started!!!! Seriously, I've got a ][+, with
64K and a Mountain Computers DA/AD card. Anyone have info on this??? Also,
I'm getting a cool card that takes a snapshot of RAM and records it on a
floppy, as well as one that keeps the RAM on during a power outage.

Hi.
I found the following Apple ][ bits today and being the Apple neophyte
that I am, I could use some information on them.
Orange Micro Grappler +. How is this better than the Orange Micro Printer
Interface that I got with my ][plus? I assume the quad DIP switch at the
back end is to set communications parameters. Looking at the traces I'm
guessing it's a serial interface.
Mega-Bit RAM card. Looks pretty boring actually, but I don't see any
obvious way to cable it to the motherboard RAM in the standard fashion. 16
chips, labelled 'C1516', 'C1515', or 'C1517'. No other markings on the
chips. I suppose it's just standard 16k RAMs?
The most interesting: a "Mockingboard Sound/Speech 1'. Looks remarkably
like a DAC/speech synth. I'm guessing even stereo? It's got two DACs and a
pair of LM386 chips. It's got three potentiometers across the top and a 4
pin BERG header which I'm thinking is the output stage. I want to play
with this. How?
Last but not least is the Apple ][ motherboard. I'm wondering which ][ it
came from. I compared it to my ][plus and it looks remarkably similar with
the following differences:
Mystery board: Has 'APPLE II MAIN LOGIC BD RFI' silkscreened underneath
the copyright and part number (820-0044-D), one bank of 300 ns Apple
branded 4116 RAMs, and Apple/Microsoft ROMs. At the back of the board
by the mounting holes it is marked '606-X548'.
Apple ][plus: Has nothing silkscreened beneath the copyright and part
number (820-0044-01 or -0I), three banks of 200 ns Apple badged 416C RAMs,
and fairly generic looking ROMs that have only Apple copyrights on them.
What are the differences between the Apple ][, ][plus, and //e?
What I'd really like is to start a good long discussion on Apple use and
lore. If somebody has the patience to start this with me, I'd appreciate
it. I've got other stuff I want to know about but this'll do for now. (:
Thanks.

i decided to make a thrift store run and found two things of interest; an
apple hd20 external scsi drive unit with the top off. had a regular old
seagate st225N in it which surprised me. also found an osborne, complete with
keyboard and dual floppies. i have seen one osborne before, but this one was
all grey and had the word OSBORNE molded into the case (or was it the
keyboard?) it also had a plastic trap door for the power cable and had a cheap
plastic feel to it, unlike the earlier one i saw last year. can anyone place
the time period it was manufactured? it was $10, so i might go back and get it
after the holiday.

About a year ago, I got a Mac Portable, which I really like. Back
then, unfortunately, I had the tendency to upgrade everything to the
most recent version, so I installed System 7.0.1 on it. Since then,
I've wanted to play with an earlier OS to save RAM. I will eventually
download OS 6.0.5, but for now, I just picked up WordPerfect 1.0.2,
which has OS 4.2 on the disks. FInally, my question: when I try to
boot off the disk, it freezes during the "Welcome to Macintosh"
screen. It shows up fine when I boot of the hard drive, and
Norton Disk Doctor doesn't show any problems. Ideas? In general,
what is the earliest version the portable can run?
By the way, it looks like I have all the needed files on the disk.
PS, what should I pay for an ImageWriter II?

Can someone tell me what a Pericom MX7200 is? It was a freebie (a
appearnlty rightly so). It's got a genuine MC68000P12 in it. When I plug
the video in and turn it on, it just sits at a blank screen with a
flashing cursor in the corner. Sometimes it will come on with some sort
of debugging screen (as in something's broken), but it will quickly flash
off before I can read it fully. I'm guessing it's a broken trace on the
PCB, as it's quite old and brittle.

A while ago I got a Kaypro 4'84 system for free and have been trying to bring
it back to a state of stability and usefulness. The system as a whole was in
good shape; my problems have been with the disk drives.
I had hoped it was "only" old, worn-out disks that were causing the problem
(and the disks are worn-out, as tests with 22DISK on a school PC show) but the
drives themselves seem to be flaky. (Either that, or the new Verbatim disks
I bought are substandard.) My worst fear is that the drives are corrupting the
disks somehow. (Can this happen even when no writing is involved?)
I have two spare drives; one is evidently SSDD and the other is DSDD -- I have
not tested them. Only the DSDD drive is really suitable. These are, IIRC,
96-tpi MFM drives. They are made by TEC. (Not the same as TEAC, I suppose.)
I would just put one in, except that I'm not sure if I need to do anything to
align them. Even if I did need to, I undoubtedly don't have the equipment.
Is alignment really important? What about on new drives?
Could cleanliness be a problem? (I cleaned the heads with a head-cleaning kit
a while ago; I put the dust cover on the computer for some time but stopped;
however, the keyboard latches in front of the drives anyway. I keep the doors
closed and the shipping inserts in the drives; I definitely have been careless
about the order of inserting/removing the inserts and opening/closing the
drives and turning on/off the computer.)
It's very unsettling to think of my software eroding as I watch. I haven't
found replacements for some of it. I've tried using 22DISK; there are two
problems with this: 1) It doesn't like my formats very much, and 2) I've been
using PC's in the computer lab and I don't trust those drives any more than
mine! I may haul an ex-roommate's Korean '386 box out of the closet if I get
desperate.
The Apple ][ disk drives I've seen have had flawless performance; even PC 5.25"
drives seem to do very well. I'm getting very tired of hearing my machine
go "grkgrkgrkgrk ... grkgrkgrkgrk ... grkgrkgrkgrk ..." (It's one of those
sounds that is instantly annoying and recognizable by pure instinct as a Very
Bad Sound. I wonder what a list of those sounds would look like?)

Sure the DOS license was a big initial push, but to say it was solely
responsible for the success of Microsoft is like saying the Model T is
responsible for Ford having the best selling vehicle in America today.
Microsoft was a development products company, not an OS company. When I got
here in 1988, I remember seeing a revenue pie chart at the company meeting.
We were at around 60-70% revenue from development products like C++ &
FORTRAN, with a big slice from apps like Word & Multiplan, and DOS revenue
was a tiny slice. In a decade where everything had to be written directly
to the hardware to get any speed out of the 8088, you can hardly say that
the DOS license had much to do with the success of the dev products.
Our first, all time most successful Windows app, Excel, that nuked the Lotus
1-2-3 monopoly through ease of use and customer demand alone, was _ported
>from the Macintosh_. How exactly could we have leveraged our ownership of
Windows to make Excel successful when it wasn't even written for Windows?
If IBM endorsing & bundling an OS makes it a monopoly, why is OS/2 dead?

I think one reason Microsoft is being sued is that Microsoft software does
not compete on the merits of the software alone. Windows 3.0 was the
first almost barely usable/tolerable version of Windows. I'm not a Mac
fan, but if you look at something like the Amiga and AmigaOS from 1985, it
was such a clearly better operating system and windowing system PC
environment compared to Microsoft's offering that if Microsoft had to
compete on technical merit alone, they would have been out of business
weeks after the Amiga's introduction.
To suggest that Microsoft's success is due to writing software that people
*want* to buy is disingenuous. Microsoft's success is due solely to the
monopoly IBM gave them in 1982. To their credit, Microsoft is only about
five years behind the curve. If IBM had kept the monopoly to themselves,
we'd all be closer to ten years behind the curve.

I quote from "The Mac Bathroom Reader" by Owen W. Linzmayer (a
non-technical history of the Mac):
"In return, Apple was allowed two afternoon visits to the PARC labs. When
Jobs first visited with Atkinson in November 1979, he saw with his own eyes
what all the fuss was about. He was so excited that he returned in
December..."
Actually, Jobs would have known all about it earlier if he had paid any
attention to Jef Raskin, who had been trying to get him to visit PARC much
sooner.

I dunno about Win98 vs. the Mac; I haven't seen either Win98 or MacOS 8,
but yes, the way I see it, Apple stole from Xerox, Microsoft stole from
Apple, Apple sued lots of people and won, Xerox Sued Apple and lost, etc.

What exactly is the distinction between the "Series 0" and "Series 1?"
To me a no floppy 5150 16KB-64KB would be missing a floppy controller

Of the 16K-64K mb's there are reputed to have been two distinct series,
called "Series 0" and "Series 1." A 16K, Series 0, no-floppy IBM PC is
alleged to have sold at auction in the UK for over UKP 10,000 ....and my
intuition (but no more than that) detects an institutional buyer. (And not
auction like eBay -- auction like Christie's.)
