Apple recommended that when this started to occur, you picked the Apple ///
a couple of inches off the table and dropped it to reseat the chips.
I'm not suprised that they weren't the success Apple had wanted. :)

Here is something new:
I just read a newsgroup post about a (somewhat) poor soul who has
gotten a PET 2001 with a rusty case looking for re-finishing/painting
suggestions. I suggested he subscribe here and ask for help.
Thinking about it this is a cool topic for discussion, has anyone
re-painted their computer cases and what tips/suggestions do you have
for us or what should we avoid (also got any good color schemes?). (I
have a few 64s lying around that would look neat with a custom paint
job, since they are plastic, what do you suggest?
I remember a letter in one of the Commodore mags on how to remove and
re-set the alphanumeric decals on a keyboard, maybe I sould spend half a
day in the storage unit and find some of this stuff... :/

Sounds like just unseated chips, this was very common for this unit, I have
4 myself. Take off the cover and push in all the chips checking for
corrosion. After you remove the top you can remove the motherboard on its
mounting plate from the bottom. If you pull out the titan cards you also
remove the video bios. Unless you have the old chip to replace the chip
the cards are attatched to, you can't boot the machine.

If you think that is a problem, try collecting in Australia. :) Pretty
much no competition for old computers (as far as I know I am one of only
two serious collectors in the state), but also almost no systems.
Everything seems to be in the US, but here the only common computer seems
to be the C64. So the values are horribly confused. On the plus side, and
awful lot of people are willing to give away their computers, as there is
nothing else to do with them. That's how I got my Lisa, for example. When
asked how much I think a given system is worth I invariably find myself in
a quandry, as there are very few of them (whatever it may be) but also
very, very few collectors. As an example, the Mac 128 I've seen from free
to $200, with $50 being the most common, the Apple IIc ranges from $5 (I
bought it) to $100, and the Amstrad CPC6128 goes from $7 to $150. All of
this in the one city. How do you advise people how much their system is
worth in that sort of climate?
Mind you, I just picked up (last night) an Tandy TRS-80 Color Computer I
for $20 - high, I thought, until you realise that it was new in box, never
even plugged in.

Interesting. I only once (I think) ever used a System/38, so I was not
very familiar with it. But I used a S/34 a lot, and when I had to write
software for a PC front end to a S/36, found the S/36 very similar from
the user interface point of view. Also, the 5360 looked physically like
a more modern 5340, complete with an updated version of my favourite
floppy drive (23 disks in one drive!). Alas, I never found out what
became of the old 5340 that I worked on (this was as a student before
university) - when I went back for a vacation job, it had gone, and all
the software had been moved to, you guessed it, another 5340!
I also once posted to a newsgroup within IBM, "Is there a similar group
for 5300 series minicomputers" which received the inexplicable reply,
"The system/38 isn't a minicomputer." (The S/34 and S/36, in which I
was interested, certainly were, so why wasn't the S/38? On the other
hand, the PC graphics terminals 537X weren't.) The group did exist, but
I never read it much in the end.
Still, enough reminiscing. Does anyone know if there are any S/34 or
even S/32 machines still around? I once had a short e-mail exchange
with someone who might have been going to acquire a S/34 but AFAIK he
never managed it.
Philip.
I have a friend that needs software for a Kaypro I and a 4+88 (I have
never heard of this but he says he has one). Would Don Maslin have the
system disks for these beasts? Or anyone else?

I have a 5110 cpu unit but had to leave the drive unit and printer behind :(
If you can get the 5120 it would be a great find for your collection. The
data storage could be either 1.2 M or 2.4 M on the 8" floppies. The machine
was announced in March of 1980 and was the successor to the 5100 and was
based on the 5110 Model 3. Also Basic and APL are in ROM. Good luck with it.

Hi all:::
Just acquired an Apple III with 256k ram and a Titan III + IIe board.
When I power it up I get a beep and the ram test begins. After this the
screeen fills with text, sits for a minute and then goes back to the ram
test. If I hit the reset button, it will boot up. Is this normal. If I
tried pulling out the Titan cards, but then it doesn't even get that far
(Just some hires graphics giberish.) Is the 6502 on the titan board?
Finally, I read somewhere that you can replace the 6502 on the titan card
with a 65c02 for enhanced //e support. Any ideas if this is fact or
fallacy?

Anyone know anything about the Sanyo MBC-3000? It's a desktop (like a
TRS-80 Model II, kinda) with a built-in monitor and two vertical 8" drives
on the right. I think it's a CP/M machine, but I'm not sure. (All I found
on the web was a place in Aus that can do data conversions.)

Sounds like an early Datamaster to me. I have a Datamaster (5123), but it has
a green-screen, not a B&W one. Otherwise the description matches.
As I understand the Datamaster, it really was the predecessor to the PC. It
was desktop based, although you needed a large desk <g>. It had an ISA-like
bus into which you could plug-in cards. My guess, from talking to someone who
worked on the project, that it was a business machine (A/P, billing, word
processing, etc.) that fell out of favor when IBM introduced the PC in 1981.
The PC was 1/3 the size, probably 1/4 the weight, much faster, and used 5-1/4"
diskettes.
There are several Datamaster owners here who can fill in more about the
actual specs. I don't use mine much because I have a blown ROM chip that
prevents me from booting...

I also have a pc convertible. pretty neat little machine. it had nothing
built-in except for a modem, or at least mine does. ports were added by means
on "wedges" you plugged in at the back of the machine. I have the
serial/parallel adaptor as well as some kind of rca output video and pcjr
style video output plugs. recently i just picked up the pc convertible
printer that also attached to the back of the machine. my battery is bad, and
my ac adaptor is dodgy so i need to fix that before i can really play with
it. when everything is plugged in, the whole setup is about twice a long as
normal, certainly doesnt fit on a desk well. I have the guide to operations,
as well as extra floppy drives and a spare lcd. I can provide addtional info
if need be.

Always check for this. A very common problem is that the batteries corrode
and kill the motherboard.

Are you running it as a Mac XL or as a Lisa? Again, this is a common
problem with the XL OS, and occurs on mine. Although not wise, I found
switching it off at the power supply was the only solution. It does seem
to work while booting up though - just not while in the OS.

Note that it takes a while for the ProFile to reach operating speed. Until
the red light is on solidly, do not start your Lisa - wait until you get a
solid light before turning it on. That should solve at least some of your
problems.

You should be able to get them, but I am afraid I know not where. However I
had heard that Sun Remarketing had the OS for the Lisa, including the
original Office 7/7, or whatever it was called. You should perhaps contact
them.

Hi everyone
Had a good week so far and picked 8 Mac plus units for those of you who
e-mailed me for one. I will go back and look at the date and time on each
e-mail and contact you in that order to see if you are still interested in a
unit. I also got 2 SE's with the 20 meg HD, one is the SE FDHD unit M5011
Vs the SE M5010 they even look different across the front. Got 2 SE's with
just floppy drives. 2 apple 800k ext FD units M0131;
2 Hayes microcoupler units; 1 SummaSketch unit wit pen and power supply; IBM
8507 19' mono vga unit; Apple extended KBII; Triplet model 601 solid state
v-o-m; 2 digital DECserver100's and 1 model 300 with manuals and software;
CMS ext tape cartridge unit;
EICO oscilloscope model 460; Panasonic video monitor model WV-950; and last
a Catamount Ministreamer magnetic transport tape drie unit model 1052. And
the weekend is not even close for my long trips out to the small towns. I'm
doing my part to save as much as I can from the scrape bin. Keep computing !
There are a number of modules that plug into the PC Convertible. It's
analogous to the PCjr "sidecars". I know that the following units
exist: 1) a serial/parallel module; 2) a composite video output module
for the PC Convertible Monitor; 3) a printer module; and 4) the battery
module.

Well it happened again I walked into the place today as far the eye could
see there apples, mac II's, 19 inch apple mono moniters, vax units, hp
vectra's, and lots of other items all sold or on hold at 5 bucks each. It
all came in Monday afternoon after I left around 12:30pm. They say that
another truck load will be in later this week and may camp out. Monday I
did get a Polymorphic System 8813 with keyboard, a Zenith model 14ZdC3, HP
III laser, and a Bernoullibox II all for $5 each. Well back to testing the
units from last week.
Sorry all... Due to a cramp in brain cell #2, Convergent came out as
Congruent...

Sorry to have to resort to this, but, due to the myriad of automatic
e-mail advertising ("SPAMming") programs out there, I've been forced
to modify my "reply to" address. To reply to this message, you must
remove the .spamfree from the reply-to address. To those friends, and
folks
who are trying to contact me with info that I will likely be happy to
receive, I apologze for this inconvienence. To those out there, sending
all these annoying "junk mail" messages, I say "Oh well...."
Will
Whatever happened to these?
thanks
Kai
