Question, can a DDS1 tape be used in a DDS2 drive to test the drive, or am
I going to have to go out and spend the $$$'s on a tape to test the drive?

It seems like I recall that either AMD or NatSemi still had a compatible
part in production.

The love affair continues. I ran across a great 1802 instruction summary in
the RCA workshop that presents the CPU instructions in a matrix format
respecting the instruction code's N code sub meaning and have added a scan
to my site at:

Check the sites mentioned for details. If you need further details we are

I have some DecTape TU56 front panel controls, so if someone has a TU56
with a bad switch or something, let me know and maybe we can make a trade.
Also, I might be able to get a set of motors, or even possibly a read/write
head, if that is needed. It would take me a couple hours to go back with
some tools and extract these parts, so unless someone wants to trade me
something for it, i probably wont bother. Someone else has already extracted
one of the motors (there are normally 4 total, one behind each of the
wheels on the front on the unit).

A complete condist (consolidated distribution) for VMS 7.0 is, I believe,
12 disks.
If you get the hobbyist CD's through the OpenVMS hobbyist program
( http://www.montagar.com/ ) the "layered product" CD that comes with it
is a "best of" from all the condist CD's, carrying what someone thought
a hobbyist would be most likely to want. Many of the compilers are there.

This is the other half, several packages with Disk or CD and docs, are
available for $5/each post paid in the USA.
Sytos Plus File Backup Manager for DOS (by Sytron)
386/MAX Version 6 by Qualitas (an EMM386 type clone?)
Shrink wrapped "Microsoft Online" box. (would make a nice addition to
your collectible AOL disk :-)

I've got a _pile_ of Novell Network developer CD-ROMs. Some claim to be
time limited, some are docs, all are from the Novell Developer program and
came on a load of stuff that was otherwise unrelated. This is what they say:
Novell Directory Service - Developer Jumpstart CD
Novell LAN DDK/SDK
Novell Software Connection Library 10
" " 11
etc, etc for about 40+ CD ROMs (I suspect some duplicates.)
It looks like most of the developer connection series and some IHV beta stuff.
Definitely should be archived rather than go to the dumpster or be made
into coasters.
I'd prefer to trade a couple of Q-bus boards or a PCI SCSI controller
(preferably one of the Adaptec ones), if there is any interest at all let
me know before next friday.

How was VMS distributed? I've got a blue box that says "OpenVMS" and
contained a "wallet" of CD-ROMS with VMS for Alpha and VMS for VAX. There
is one VAX-VMS Binraries CD and one that is labelled "Layered Products 1 of
1" and the VMS FreeWare 2.0 CD. I'm looking for the C, Fortran, and PASCAL
compilers. But they don't appear to be on either of these disks. Was there
another CD with even more layered products on it?
