Update and Pictures: It's been a hell of a day! HP 9845/2x i8008/Sage II/2x Grid/TI Silent 700/Alpha Micro

I finally had a chance to look at some of the stuff today. I was wrong about the i8008 comnputers. They each have SIXTEEN 1101 RAMs on them and eight 1702 EPROMs. One of the machines has some non-Intel brand 1101 memories that are dated 7114!!!! (See the yellow arrow at <http://www.classiccmp.org/hp/i8008-1/board.jpg> ). I haven't had a chance to look them up yet but those two white ceramic parts are marked uA3656 or something like that. Anyway the red arrow is pointing to the i8008 CPU. The yellow arrow is pointing to the column with the 1101 RAMs and the blue arrow is pointing to the column of 1702 EPROMs. More pictures of this machine at <http://www.classiccmp.org/hp/i8008-1> and pitures of the second machine at <http://www.classiccmp.org/hp/i8008-2>. The circuit board appears to be the same in both machines despite the very different cases. I didn't get a chance to get pictures of the TI Silent 700 yet but I did open it up and check it out. It's a model 733KSR and IT'S SWEET! It's mounted in the transit case with spring loaded clips and it's in excellant condition and still has the interface cable attached. It also works perfectly :-) According to the labels on the case, it is a part of the same system(s) as the i8008 computers. The Visual terminal also works perfectly :-) I checked the HP 9845B and it's absolutely dead. The fan doesn't even run. However the fault should be easy enough to locate. It's odd though, their is no sticker listing the options and it has a hand written serial number on the SN label. I didn't get to the Sage or the other stuff yet. I HOPE to do that tomorrow. Joe
