my objection to recent postings

by adavie＠mad.scientist.com

I object to the use of the Classic Computer mailing list for advertising for-sale items on an ongoing basis for profit. I consider the use of this list in this way akin to dropping advertising leaflets in my mailbox, or ringing me up and asking if I want to buy insurance. Surely, the newsgroups and eBay, etc., are an appropriate place for regular sales? A mailing list dealing with the preservation of classic computers is not. Cheers A

I don't see why defacing a classic Mac (or "Frankentosh" as > they say) should be regarded as any less horriffic. Am I totally off > here? Anyone? No, you're just mostly off. The 128K Mac in question was one that had been upgraded with contemporary modifications during its useful service life, with the intention of making it do its thing, only better. It wasn't defaced, it was enhanced, with things that were designed for just that purpose, by someone using it for its intended purpose. And at its core it's the same 128K Mac. Gutting a 128K Mac to fit an SE/30's works inside would be stretching this notion of "enhancement" a bit more than I'm comfortable with, because so far as I know Mac users didn't do that sort of thing and that sure isn't what SE/30 works were designed for. (But I'm not a Mac guy and maybe someone did do this back then.) And if I knew of someone planning to do something like what you describe to a Computer Space machine today, well...I think that stretches this notion past the point of fatigue. I'd certainly encourage him away from such a course of action. What would I have done in, say, 1982 though? I don't know, I might have even helped do it, though I really don't think I'd have seen any point to it even then. Now, that said, the goals of collectors don't necessarily have much to do with the goals of the computer's contemporary users. Original unmodified 128K Macs will probably be of more interest to some, because they were The First Macintoshes (available for public sale, anyway), and being first does have a certain cachet. And the fact that many of their original users felt the need for such upgrades has made unmodified 128K Macs that much rarer today. -Frank McConnell

Random repair pieces, odd boards, documentation, weird It seems to me if the "for sale" was restricted to 10 years or older there would be no place for spam related "hot PII price list" stuff. I have never received a single spam price list listing a uVAX I, an IMSAI chassis, or a big price break on 16KB static RAM boards. Keep the For Sale mail, but how about labeling it with the "FS:" prefix in the subject so those who object can filter it out? I for one watch for the occasional odd S-100 card, where else am I going to see that kind of stuff? Jack Peacock

Diamond D5 Wordprocessor

by JRichardson＠softwright.co.uk

Hi All, Has anyone had any experience with a Diamond D5 wordprocessor? Has anyone even *heard* of such a beast? One was donated to me a while ago after standing unused in a garage for a few years - apparently it was working when it went into store. However, nowadays if I put the system disk into the drive it seeks the heads, spins a couple of times, then all goes silent. There's no cursor or anything on the monitor, but having never seen the machine working myself I don't know if it should display anything at all before a successful boot completes. Basically I'm after more information before I can seriously start thinking about getting this thing going. Obviously I don't even know if the system disks are still good, let alone what sort of hardware faults exist inside... thanks for *any* help with this thing!! cheers Jules

Dick Smith System 80 S-100 Expansion Connections

by Guerney＠uq.net.au

I have just bought an almost-new condition fully kitted out Dick Smith System 80 - this was an Australian-sold clone of the TRS-80. The system consists of a console with included tape player, an S-100 expansion box and two 200K 5.25" floppy drives. The receipt dated September 1982 was in one of the boxes (all original packing) along with all connectors. The expansion box contains an extra 32K RAM (total 48K) and connecting cables to the main system, the two drives (each one a separate stock item, one "Disk 0" and the other "Disk 1") and to a Centronics printer. Price asked in a charity shop was $10 each for the two big boxes and $5 each for the two drives. Not too bad, and you can't argue too much when the money is going to a good cause! But absolutely no documentation. The basic system works OK. What I want to know is how to connect up the expansion box to the main box and the drives. The connecting cables are standard flat multi-strand cable with the Pin 1 side marked in red. But which is Pin 1 at the connection blocks? I don't want to kill this beautifully clean unit by connecting it up backwards! If someone could tell me which end of each of the connection blocks on the back of the console, on the S-100 box and on the disk drives is the Pin 1 end, I would be grateful. Phil

Yes I remember the article (it was humor) because a friend asked if I could build the same thing for him. I think it was Popular Electronics, there were no tech details so I'm sure it wasn't BYTE or KILOBAUD. Anyway, I was skeptical that it was real so I told my friend to contact the author before I took any of his money. My friend contacted the author for details. The author admitted he had embellished the capabilities and the article was more fiction than fact, although theoretically possible to do at the time. Jack Peacock

S34 system

by allisonp＠world.std.com

I got to meet Max today and see the S34. Nice machine is fair condition. His problem is that it's wired for 208 and from what I could observe all the transformer primaries are limited to the 200V range (208/220/240). Can some one up on S34s confirm that? All the power comes from three feroresonant transformers (CVTs) which explains the 580v warning (across the resonating capacitor). It would seem the only way to power it off 117v line is tansformer of the 1000-2000va size. I suspect the smaller will work as this machine while complete is not "loaded". It's biggest disk is an internal 69mb 8" with what appears to be a DC spindle. Anyhow for power it expects a single phase 208 L-L connection so a auto transformer may do it. It's been a while since I've seens linear regulators or possibly low voltage switchers of this size. Allison
