Simon, how timely of you. I just acquired a NorthStar
Horizon
yesterday which uses four 64KB memory boards (parity). Each board has
four 9 chip rows of 16KB dram. I haven't got the documentation for
this machine yet, the previous owner has it in storage with software
as well (he claims) and said he might have it for me by next week.
Gah! Are you trying to make me jealous or something? You're succeeding! ;)
Out of interest, what would a N* want with 256K anyway? Presumably,
whatever OS it is running is pretty hefty stuff!
I'll let you know more details when I get the
docs.
Excellent; thanks!
You know, since there's a few of us, maybe we should see about giving
comp.sys.northstar a bit more traffic! Alternatively, maybe we should set
up a few web pages with N* info on? There's practically *nothing* out
there right now - I couldn't even find an S100 bus pinout!
