Help: Thinker toys Wunderbuss???

On Fri, 5 Feb 1999, Mike wrote: Sounds like a very cool historic piece. Would make a great centerpiece for a home computer collection because of its homebrew motif. The Wunderbuss was an S-100 bus made by George Morrow (Thinker Toys). I believe it is actively terminated. The 8" drives are in all liklihood Shugarts (SA800), perhaps anchored by a Thinker Toys Disk Jockey interface (guessing, since the system includes the Thinker Toys Wunderbuss). The Stringy floppy drive is the coolest aspect of this machine. It was introduced around 1979 but didn't last very long due to its poor reliability. Make sure you get as many wafers with it as you can as those are rare. I'd be curious to know what the wirewrap boards are. Please post an update when you get your hands on it. Sounds like a cool find. Sellam Alternate e-mail: dastar(a)siconic.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Always hasslin' the man.
