Well, there's already such a thing. First of all, look at the market for
"work docs," Xerox copies of manuals that people need to get things going.
I admit that these usually change hands for $5 to $10 or the cost of
copying, whichever is higher, but the commerce is flourishing. Then on a
very different level, there's the market for original distribution
software, such as WordStar 1.x-2.x, dBASE II for CP/M, early Multiplan,
etc. which if mint and complete are offered at $50 to $150.
I cannot prove, but I would bet, that there are already "forgeries" of
things like Apple I cassette BASIC and Micro-Soft black paper tapes.
And....what price an original set of Apple I manuals?

AFAIK, PGA=PGC. IIRC, VGA pixel resolution by lots of colours.
When I was working for IBM, I installed a PGC for a customer; I helped
with demos involving PGC and DACA (Yes, another nice piece of kit) but I
never had a chance to acquire any of that stuff :-( :-( :-(
The PGC was three (Tony, am I right, or am I just imagining the middle
board?) boards bolted together, with the outer two going in adjacent
slots of an AT or XT motherboard. Wouldn't go on a 5-slot PC of course.
Now that would be a hack...
PGC came with a new sticker for the _back_ of your PC - now no longer a
class B but a class A computer according to FCC rules (which thankfully
don't apply in the UK, but things are getting worse with our
Electromagnetic Compatibility directive)

I have one of the HP rack mounts in my living room right now (on its way
to storage with the punch). Unfortunately I can't post pictures for
y'all but here is how it goes.
Basically it is a sliding shelf with a front, with a hole in the front
for the chad box to poke through. There's a little metal plate
screwed to the shelf near the front, as well as a couple of black plastic
circles toward the rear. Those are just guides to keep the punch
>from wiggling around too much as it punches.
There are also a couple of dividers screwed down and held apart
with standoffs toward the left of the shelf. At a guess these make a
handy place to store a few reels of paper tape for when you have to
refill the punch.
Finally there are screw-downs for a twisted pair of wires that go up
to a power light mounted in the front of the rack. Well, it's supposed
to be there, the lightbulb is missing on mine; I think it got mashed in
shipment.
The shelf needs to slide so you can get tape off the takeup reel (if
you don't just let it spill out the front), get at the punch's
controls and most of the tape path, and feed the punch. Oh, also note
that there is a little widget at center rear between the shelf and the
frame; this is to keep the shelf from sliding out due to vibration

It isn't clear to me that my 2895 punch is any different from a table-top
unit. Smoked-plastic chad box, BTW.

OK OK OK. I am planning on pulling all my 2100 manuals out for y'all.
I can't do it just yet, though; there are other things ahead in the
queue. Maybe this weekend if I can get some other pieces into place.
Fair warning: I am a software kind of guy; I know what a schematic
looks like but you shouldn't count on much more. OTOH, I can work
a photocopier.
If y'all are interested in a little story about the 2100 power supply,
I suggest getting Analytical Engine 2.3 from CHAC's web/ftp site and
reading the interview with Barney Oliver. One spoiler: yes, it is a
switching power supply, and there was something patentable in its
design.

The HP 150 is a (not) IBM compatible, circa 1985. It's an 8088 that
runs a wacky disk format with a correspondingly wacky OEM version of
MS-DOS. I have one of these machines, but don't have the DOS for it.
It'll run a small subset of early MS-DOS based software that doesn't
make any hardware accesses -- sort of the same situation as a DEC
Rainbow. There's a FAQ at
http://www.mdn.com/oksoftware/Computers/hp150faq.html.

Ok, I went out and rented _War Games_ because I'm a total nerd and wanted
to see David's IMSAI. I noticed a couple interesting things in the
movie. First, in one scene early on where david is sitting in front of
his computer, they show it head on, and you can see sitting on top of his
monitor his modem, which had on it "IMSAI 212A MODEM". Did IMSA, in
fact, manufacture a 1200 baud modem? He also had an IMSAI labeled keyboard!
A neat thing: at the end of the movie during the credits they get to
thanking those who provided technical assistance. The first company
listed is none other than "CompuPro Division, Godbout Electronics". Very
cool! Others listed were Televideo, Fischer-Freitas (why does that sound
familiar and did I get the Fischer part right?), Memorex, Qume, and about
10 others.
Anyway, pretty cool flick. It combines elements of hacking, phreaking
(where he grounds the microphone on the old ground-start payphone, a real
ball-sy scene since that was a real-life trick you could pull in those
days) and of course classic computers!

I was walking past the scrap pile a few weeks back when I saw a large PCB
that appeared to be part of a DG Nova system. Digging a little further
produced another 3 boards, the cabinet/PSU (alas missing the fan), and
the frontpanel bezel. This identified the machine as a DG Nova 1210.
Since there are only 4 slots in the backplane, I think I have all the
cards. What I have is a Nova CPU board (with _1_ 74181 - did this machine
really have a 4 bit ALU?), a core memory board and 2 custom I/O boards
(missing a few TTL chips, but the locations are labeled with the 74xx
number, so that's no problem). I am missing the lights/switches board.
Does anyone know anything about this machine? I assume it's worth saving.
A schematic would be useful (or at least a description of the frontpanel
board and its interface), since then I could probably recreate the front
panel and get it running again.

Hello again!
Some time ago I reported on an attic full of Sord computers that only
waited for someone to come along and grab them. I have now looked over
most of the attic (not all, mind you) and catalogued what I found. It is
an interesting list of 40 computers of 17 different types. Mostly Sord,
but also some PC compatibles. There is at least one Sord M680UX mini,
probably one or two more.
Sam and Kevan have already announced that they want several systems, so
there will be shipments going both to the US and the UK. The attic in
question is in Gothenburg, Sweden, but the more people join in, the
cheaper it will be. If you want a list of available stuff (also some
printers and a lot of manuals and software) let me know and I will send it
to you.
Next, I will try to determine what shipping would approximately cost.

To put in my 2 cents' worth...
Up until last year, I sold XT's pretty regularly. This year, I sold two. I
*do* still see some acquired out there (last Sunday, I set up a PC for a
friend and her kids...she bought it for $9 at an auction) and many of my
customers still have the older stuff (good grief -- we still have a couple
Epson QX-10's around, in this hick town!)
Motherboards are gonna start going rapidly pretty soon, and
monitors...nobody makes CGA anymore that I know of...what user (versus
collector) is gonna replace a CGA with VGA on an XT? He'll junk the whole
thing, and buy a Packard Bell at Wal-Mart (and use it to play Solitaire.)
Worth keeping? I think so. Boards don't take up a whole lot of space, and
you're going to make a collector *very* happy some day. (I'd take your
boards, except that I've already got plenty.) But, it'll be a long time
before you sell them!
