I have had these disks since the early 80's, and they all seem to be in perfect condition, but you never know when they will go bad. Anyone have any suggestions, of places to go to get boxed SD or DD floppies in bulk? I will start looking around, and if I find a place, I will post it. Thanks for the advice about the HD floppies being different than DD or SD. I will definitely reserve those for scratch disks. That was exactly the answer I was looking for. Thanks for the help.

Hard/Soft sectoring

by carl.friend＠stoneweb.com

On Thu, 17 Apr 1997 20:02:43 -0800, Mr Shoppa graced us with these words of wisdom: > What - you had an assembler? I have to toggle in ones and > zeroes. Before that we didn't even have zeroes and I had > to use the letter 'O'. Ah, good lad! I understand that in some parts of the world the use of the numeral "0" (zero) is still regarded as heresy.

Hard/Soft sectoring

by carl.friend＠stoneweb.com

On Wed, 16 Apr 1997 22:23:30 -0400, this arrived on the list from the esteemed Mr. Allen Underdown: > In the olden days of magnetic floppy media, there was a sector hole > FOR EVERY SECTOR located around the hub of the floppy. All very well and good, but there's that one extra you forgot about. ;-) Yes, hard-sectored disks _do_ have a hole to denote the beginning of each sector, but to indicate the beginning of a _track_ they use two adjacent holes. In soft-sectored disks, the single hole serves to signal the beginning-of-track; the individual sectors are defined via headers recorded during the format operation. > God I love reading this list! With all due respects to Mr. Mel Brooks: "Ditto!" ______________________________________________________________________ | | | | Carl Richard Friend (UNIX Sysadmin) | West Boylston | | Minicomputer Collector / Enthusiast | Massachusetts, USA | | mailto:carl.friend@stoneweb.com | | | http://www.ultranet.com/~engelbrt/carl/museum | ICBM: N42:22 W71:47 | |________________________________________________|_____________________|

Extra Stuff

by jeffh＠eleventh.com

Here are a few extra things I need to part with to make space: 1) TI-99/4A, silver/black, with power supply. No RF modulator. works great....$15 + shipping 2) Amiga 1000, main unit only..no keyboard. Bad floppy and missing the cover which goes over the RAM expansion on the front of the unit. Also is missing the 68000 CPU. This system is said to have worked ok, but I bought it for it's keyboard and it is just sitting here. I really hate to trash it, so anyone who is interested can have it for the cost of the shipping. An interesting thing about it is that it, like all A1000's, has the underside of the upper casing 'signed' by all it's designers, including Jay Miner.

Oh come on, guys. I'm not _that_ old :-) (36). One of the reasons that I cherish the minicomputer architectures is, admittedly, nostalgia, but the other reasons include the fact that they're very servicable (frequently with off-the-shelf components) and they provide a wonder tactile sense of the essence of computing. Few things compare to hand-assembling programs, entering them in binary via a front panel, and having them work. Also, the average minicomputer is simple enough to understand its' inner workings at a gate level; this makes minis admirable teaching tools. > I started my computing on my older brothers ZX80, I was 13 at the > time. Thus I was brought up on the home computer boom of the early > eighties. I was a bit of a "late bloomer" when it comes to computing. I was always interested in the machines, all the way from early childhood, and was lucky enough to have relatives with contacts at MIT and Harvard. I got to see some wonderful stuff then (even played Space- war on Harvard's PDP-1!) but never got to do any programming until my second year of secondary school in the late '70s. The first machine I programmed on was the Nova 840 I have in my collection now. The machine I "cut teeth" on in a hardware sense was an Inter- data Model 3, in my third year of ss. Although I bought a VIC-20 (for the princely sum of (US)$300) in 1980 (?), I never really "took to" the micro- architectures (it might also have been that they were so _slow_ compared to the PDP- 10s I was working on at the time). I think I still have the VIC around someplace.

Well, today was a rather good day out at the swap meet, my first excursion in a couple years. It started out slow. The first thing I found was one lowly Atari 2600 PacMan cart sitting amidst some guy's junk. For some reason I thought I would buy it (?) thinking maybe I didn't already have PacMan (whatever) and it went like this: Me: How about a quarter? Him: 1 dollar. Me: A quarter? Him: 1 dollar. Me: How about 50 cents? Him: ok. Anyway, it got way better. Walking along I found a beautiful little TimexSinclair 1000! At least I'm am darned sure it is, because the label is missing on the top but the bottom has a stamp which has "CEC8E4TS1000R1" in it. There is also a sticker with a serial number and "Model M330" on it. Anyway, I've never actually seen one, but have been looking for one for years! And finally its mine! MINE! Haven't tested it yet but I'm sure it works. Its in good condition. Could someone who has one describe theirs so I can figure out exactly what I have? I know there were different varieties of the TS1000. Mine has an Ear and Mic jack on the side. What the hell are those for? Oh, duh, just figured it out...data recorder. Never mind. You know how hard it is to find a 9V DC power source with a 1/8" headphone jack? I looked all over the meet for one, finally found one but the seller wanted three bucks for it so I passed. I can't encourage that kind of larceny :) So continuing on I found some more Atari 2600 carts I didn't have, and then I found an original IBM PC/XT. The guy wanted $50 but I promptly talked him down to $7. What a steal. Haven't tested it yet but it "looks" like it will work :) Now I want the Original IBM PC and a PC Jr. The funny thing is, I paid more for 9 Atari 2600 games ($11 in one case) than an entire PC. So moving forward, I found someone selling a Macintosh 512K. Cool, I'd been wanting to add a classic Mac to my collection for some time. But this one was missing the keyboard and mouse. They only wanted $20 for it. I tried talking them down but they didn't want to move. Later I found someone selling a complete Mac+. Now this one I know was hot. At first they wanted $50 but I talked them down to $15 (I used the "It's all the money I have right now" ruse, except in this case it was true). I really wanted to get the other Mac, because it was closer to the original Macintosh, but this one was more complete, so I got it instead. Now, I don't want to disparage the fine folks of Oakland, California, but as I said before, I'm most positive this system was hot. They were too willing to dump off a perfectly good Macintosh (at least I think its perfectly good, haven't tested it yet) for too little money. Later on when I was going through the software I got with it I found some BMUG disks (BMUG = BayArea Macintosh User's Group). So I'll be contacting BMUG to see if any of their members "lost" a macintosh within the last couple months, and if I find a match I'll sell it back to them for what I paid. (I'm such a nice guy, eh!?) Throughout the day I saw a LOT of Nintendo consoles, carthridges and accessories (not classic enough yet). I'm sure in 5-10 years when I inevitably start collecting Nintendo crap I'll be wishing I had picked up a lot of this stuff. Oh well, maybe when I have enough money to buy all the truly classic stuff I want and THEN some cash left over for the common tripe, I'll start collecting nintendo. So anyway, at the end of the day I ended up with an IBM PC/XT (original), a MacintoshPlus, a TimexSinclair 1000 (yeah!) and about 25 more atari 2600 carts, plus an intellivision cart and a TI/994a cart. Total bill: $45. Not bad. And I'm still under my budget of $100 per month for classic computer collecting (I just implemented that budget, but I think it may be too high. I tend to get carried away when collecting old computer stuff and, if left unchecked, would buy everything I came across. As it is I just may go back for that Mac512K.) Now I just need to keep my new booty hidden from my fiance. If I can offer any tip to would-be flea market bargain hunters: haggle. Start way low and work up. Some people don't even know what they're selling, and think just because it's a computer (computer = high tech) it must be worth big bucks. You have to slap them around a bit until they come to their senses. No common system console (ie. Vic20s, Atari 2600s, etc) should go for more than $10 ($15 at the VERY most). No game carthridge should go for more than $.50 (IMO, unless you REALLY want it, then NO more than $2.00 each). What do you all think?

Hewlett-Packard HP125 Keyboards

by dcobley＠island.net

Hi all. I'm pleased to report that the Xerox 16/8 system I offered for adoption here, has started its lengthy journey to it's new home in North Carolina, and the Kaypro Service manual is on its way to Oregon. Now its my turn to ask for help. Some time ago, at our local Thrift store, I bought two Hewlett-Packard HP125 Display units. They contain the monitor and CPU for these CP/M units and I have a good collection of suitable peripheral drive units. I only paid $2:50 each for the Display units. And they seem to work OK but I really can't be sure until I get keyboards. I also have a set of boot disks for them. But I have no keyboards. I understand the same keyboard was used with the H-P 26xx series of Terminals. Does anyone have one or two suitable keyboards they'd be willing to sell to me? My e-mail address is listed below.

Sam, The transformer with my TS-1000 shows an input (to the computer) of 9.75V DC. Both my TS-1000 and Sinclair ZX-81 seem to be picky about TV's and the shielding of the cable. As for identifying marks, from your previous post, the only thing my TS-1000 has on it is the FCC ID# CEC8E4TS1000R1. Otherwise, there's no mention of the number you mentioned...just the sticker on the top 'Timex-Sinclair 1000'. The box and such doesn't give any indications to other identifiers either.
