Yes, I very much remember these and very much remember it always being on
my wish list of things to add to my Apple. I never did get one. I
posted a WTB ad on an Apple newsgroup a while back for one and some guy
responded but he gave me this bullshit "tell me what you're willing to

anyone's got one and wants it to go to a good home, let me know.

Sam,
That's not entirely true. ;-) I'm being paid to write optimized
assembly code for an upcoming game from (of all people) Microsoft.
12,000 lines of hand tuned assembly, with some truely wonderful gems of
small, efficient code in it. I must admit though that we had an editor
>from one of the gaming magazines come by the other day and mention that
the only other gam company still writing serious assembly was
NovaLogic... It does seems like a dying art.
But I'm off topic.
What I wanted to bring up was Creative Computing Magazine , pre 1981. I
was only 10 - 14 years old during that time period, but I remember the
content as being fantastic. There were fewer rules and a much more
hardcore audience then. Does anyone remeber "Computer Myths Explained"
and the great line drawings of robots and wierd machines that took on a
life of their own. I'd love to get a collection of those drawings...

I do know that some later T2k's preferred the usage of HD diskettes vice DD
ones. This could possibly be a change in the drive mech that Mitsubishi used
for the basis of the M4853-1. Mine used to use DD disks just fine, which is
what I used since the QD ones were difficult to find and were expensive.
Other people I talked to had no luck with the reliability of DD diskettes
though and found that the HD ones would work just fine.

The other day I was looking at an ad on the back of a comic book. It was
for a nintendo or sega game or whatnot. I then remembered how when I was
a boy how Atari and other such companies used to advertise their games on
the backs of comic books. Anyway, my point is that looking at the backs
of old 80s comic books is a neat way to look back at the games that were
available back then. It gives a nice historical perspective.
Speaking of historical perspective (or something) I just got Pitfall for
the Atari 2600 today (a game I had way back when I had my first 2600) and I
must say even by today's standard it is a bitchen game. As far as
creativity and just the sheer fun of playing it, it beats a lot of the
dreck out today. I can't wait until my Pitfall II comes in.

If I remember correctly, we had a Compaq 'lunchbox' portable machine
that had a gas-plasma display on it. It was a '386 machine and the display
pivoted outward and could be adjusted for the best viewing angle. I've seen
a couple other systems with these displays as well, but don't recall which
ones or if I had any problems with them. It seems to me that the gas-plasma
was fairly easy on the eyes.

Hi There:
I saw the posting that you placed on comp.sys.tandy that proclaimed

I still have one that I don't use...it is taking up too much of valuable
desk space...any suggestions on how to sell (for very little of course)
this computer system.
It is 1 MB, 20 MB primary, 12 MB secondary...2 8" double density disk

I also have two tandy 12s and 2 Model IIs and a VT-52 in the basement
wrapped up in plastic. Software, manual, etc. etc. etc. While I was

Suggestions welcome...the owner of club-100 suggested I could ask $50 for
the Model 2s, $75 for the Tandy 12 and maybe $150 for the 16/6000. Yes I

Been pretty slow around here of late.
I went to a thrift store and ended up finding a copy of John Scully's
_Odyssey_. Although I hate this man and hold him solely responsible for the
demise of Apple and especially the Apple ][ (please don't start a holy
war over this, its just my stupid opinion) I found the book to contain
tons of great history on Apple during the 80s and decided it would make
an excellent read and historical reference. Even though it was in crummy
condition, it was only $2.95.

I just wanted to say this:
Already several people have offered to help out by getting the files off
the RLO2 disk packs.
Right now, Jim Willing seems to be the guy to do it (he also seems to be
closest to the disks, which I think are in central CA). I've put him in
touch with keith Robinson who is heading up the Intellivsion emulator
effort.
Let me just say that I am overwhelmed by the favorable response that
has come from the people on this list. The sense of community and
people that value computer history has left me with a lump in my throat.

I know there was mention on this group a few weeks back about disk
platters.
Here's the situation:
You can help preserve a bit of history.
There is a project underway in the classic gaming community to release
the entire *entire* Mattel Intellivsion library on an Emulator for the
PC and Macintosh. This project is being spearheaded by the Blue Sky
Rangers - a group of original Mattel Intellivision programmers.
In addition to all the games that people know about, the Blus Sky
Rangers have some 14" DEC platters taken from 2 VAX systems that were
used for development. These files on these platters include source
code, screen shots and data from *UNRELEASED* Intellivision games. Some
of these probably were announced titles that never shipped, others were
never even announced.
If anyone has working equipment that can read these platters, and
extract the files to some other medium, and is willing to get involved
to preserve these games before they are lost forever, please contect me
at mpritchard(a)ensemble.net or matthep(a)netcom.com
I thank everyone in advance,

When I was at my parents' house, I also went to visit my old-timer
neighbor. My parents told me he wanted to talk to me about getting a new
computer. He has one of the first 1000 HeathKit H89 systems to come off
the assembly line. I remember going to his house back in 1988 a couple
times to trade programming tips with him and playing with it. He built it
himself. It's in cherry condition, with the original Heathkit covers for
both the computer and the heathkit printer. I gave him advice on buying a
new system and offered to buy his Heathkit from him, but I don't think
he's ready to sell it yet. Before I left I emphasized that when he's
ready to part with it to call me.
I'm looking through this old issue of Popular Computing (I also found a
good run of this magazine). This issue is September 1983. These things
are awesome. Let's take a look at this one...
The cover story is "Demystifying Computer Languages" and has a column
each for APL, BASIC, C, COBOL, FORTH, FORTRAN, LISP, Modula-2, Pascal,
PROLOG and Smalltalk. You see, that's another thing that was great
about the 80s...not only did you have diversity of systems, but you had a
viable diversity of languages. Sure you could argue that today, but
let's face it, this is a C dominated world.
Hmm, cool, there's a hacking article, "Profile of a Computer Abuser".
And some way cool Do-itYourself article on how to build a $4 printer stand.
Let's see, there's the standard Elephant Memory Systems disk ad (remember
those? Always with a yellow backdrop, a lot of times on the back of the
mag). Anyway, here's an ad for a Percom Data disk drive for the T-99/4a
for $499. So whoever found that TI-99/4a disk in the thrift shop, keep
looking for the Percom Data disk drive. Here's the basic IBM ad with the
lame Charlie Chaplan impersonator. Ok cool, a big price page for a
company called computer mail order (how generic). Timex Sinclair 1000,
$39.95; Commodore 64, $239; Pet 64, $569; Sanyo MBC-555, $795; Eagle
IIE-1, $1,369; and on the CMO top 100, we have Choplifter at #1 for the
Apple, WordPro64 for the C64 and Donkey Kong for the Atari.
Moving on, we have an add for Fontrix (a cool Apple ][ page designing
program), an ad for Commodore 64 that compares its under $600 price to
the $1395 Apple, the $999 TRS-80 III and the $1355 IBM PC. Wow. A
2-page ad spread for the Apple ///. Dum de dum, hey an ad for the HP-86
personal computer. I don't think I've ever seen one of these...its like
an Apple in design, with the keyboard and CPU all one unit. I never knew
HP made such a beast. I'll have to find me one of those.
(are we bored yet?)
Oh, here's a good one: an ad for a C64 that says "More power than Apple
][ at half the price" (what a joke) and for the VIC-20 that says "a real
computer at the price of a toy" (they got the toy part right). I betray
my thinly veiled Apple ][ bias.
Moving on, here's a funky user definable keyboard called the keywiz VIP
(and in parenthesis it says Very Intelligent Peripheral) made by a company
called Creative Computer Peripherals. I guess you can assign a keyword to
each key and it was compatible with the Apple and TRS-80. Then an ad for
the TI Compact Computer. It shows a typically preppy 80s type dude
sitting at a desk (presumably in a library) with a typically preppy 80s
type chick sitting on the other side and the ad copy says "20 pages of
notes, a thesis, algebraic forumlas. Can you make a date at eight?" The
guy in the ad has one finger on a key on the computer which has a disk
drive attached, and one holding a pen as he writes down notes on a yellow
legal pad. Brilliant. I'll take two.
Ok, here's an add from Wisconsin Discount Sales, showing a Panasonic 32K
for $249, an Atari 800XL with, instead of a price, the word "NEW" in a
blast bubble.
Here's something funny. In caption from the article on Prolog, it says
"Japanese researchers have chosen PROLOG as the standard language for
their fifth-generation computer project. If the project succeeds, it's
very likely that we'll all be programming in PROLOG by 1995!" I guess we
all know the outcome of that particular project.
Anyway, then there's a review of the Radio Shack PC-4 "programmable
calculator" and the Casio FX-700P pocket computer.
Hey, a ComputerLand ad. They are now back in business as Vanguard by the
way.
Blah, blah, blah. More ads. Blah. And that's pretty much it. I hope
you enjoyed this tour of the September 1983 issue of Popular Computing.

Wow.
I didn't intend to buy any computer equipment this weekend but
ended up passing a church swap meet with a big sign that list
"compters" <sic> on it. Later in the day I spotted a pawn shop
that had a sign up that said "Collectable PCs - get them while
you still can!" Just how much temptation can one resist?
Anyway I'll divide this into two groups - stuff I know things
about already and stuff I don't have a clue about.
Stuff I know about
TI/99 Expansion box with disk/memory/rs232
Atari 520ST
Commodore 128 (spare)
Commodore Cassette (original)
Macintosh (M0001)
DEC Rainbow 100 Documentation in box
DEC Rainbow OS disks
Samda Word Processor for DEC Rainbow
25 RX50 disks labelled MICRO/RSTS - I don't knwo what they are
but I'm guessing they're not for the Rainbow. I really needed
some RX50 disks though.
34 C64/128 disks with programs
18 Apple II disks with programs
FORTRAN on disk for the TI99/4A (the first disks I've ever seen for
the TI)
EagleWriter II for the Eagle Computer
12 Assorted CP/M disks
17 8" TRS-80 Model II disks
Set of OS disks for Heath/Zenith Z-100
VisiCalc and a couple other Atari 800 disks
Various old PC disks
Some power supplies and RF modulators
Hardware Maint manual for Novell Netware/68
(includes info and schematics for almost all early novell hardware!)
Stuff I don't know about
IBM 6360 dual 8" floppy system (for what?)
TRS-80 TRP-100 printer
TRS-80 Color Graphics Printer
Commodore DPS-1101 Printer
Alphacom VP-42 Printer (for VIC-20 only it says)
NEC PC8801A (no keybd, disk drives)
Excelerator Plus Disk Drive (looks like for commodore serial bus)
MicroSci Disk Drive (Disk II clone, right?)
Timex-Sinclair 1000 with plug-in box on the back (RAM module?)
(I never realized from pictures how small these were!)
TRS-80 RAM module (looks like the T-S RAM module)
It was a fun weekend (glad I drive a van!)

Well, I was too busy with other stuff and unfortunately couldn't attend a
real good swap meet this weekend, but I did re-discover a cache of
magazines in my parents' barn. I found out I had an entire run of
Creative Computing, I have almost the complete run of A+ (including the
first issue...this is an Apple ][ mag), a (I think) complete run of
Incider (another Apple ][ rag), a few issues of byte from 1981 (the
SmallTalk issue) and 1984, a couple issues of Family Computing from 1984,
an issue of SoftTalk, and some other miscellany. This stuff is as good
as gold! Creative Computing is a total blast going through all the ads.
The main thing that struck me is the diversity of computer systems that
were available in the early 80s. Contrast that with what you got today
(Wintel crap/Macincrap). That diveristy is what we are discovering
today. I think in 10 years there probably will be no memorable classic
computers worth collecting from the 90s. MAYBE the Mac portable, and I
can't think of anything else right off hand. There is just going to be
this hideous montage of various IBM PC clones by different manufacturers
or just run-of-the-mill computer shop PCs. Bleah! Long live the
thriving micro-computer revolution of the 70s and 80s!

Normally, the 16k RAM pack says what it is on it, though I guess a RAM
module from a third party might not. The T/S-1000 RAM pack was about 3" wide
x 3" high x 1-1/2" deep. I've seen third party RAM packs up to 64k, but they
tended to be the full width of the computer.
