So, I'll offer to host and html-ize any stuff like
this anyone wants to
send
me. Just dump it (any kind of: history, folklore,
specs, special
commands,
secret codes, easter eggs, power supply voltages,
etc.) in an e-mail and
send it to me at <roger(a)sinasohn.com> and I'll get it on-line. (It won't
necessarily be beautiful, but it will be useable.)
Great idea. The manuals may survive, but the folklore that's batted about
this -- and other discussion groups -- is as ephemeral as it is precious.
My grandkids are (i hope) gonna want to know what it felt like to sit at a
keyboard, to write a program, to swap out a drive...
