Hi all,
just to give the current state of affairs:
I decided to go after those cables I had missed anyway, and made a couple
phone calls and mails to the people responsible for recycling. Indicating
that "there has been a mistake at the computing center" brought me in
contact with the internal recycling department, where I got an appointment
for yesterday morning to come sort through the stuff, which was still there.
To get it short: I went, and finally got two HP PSI -> X.21 cables, 5 m
each. Issue solved. Now to learn something about X.21, and/or communications
standards in general... Any good sources Google won't turn up likely?
Additionally, I got four original HP standard serial cables (SubD-9f -
SubD25-m) and an Exabyte streamer in an external SCSI enclosure, which even
still had a cartridge inside. Even more to learn about...
Yours sincerely,
--
