ebay: 2 vintage cards for apollo workstation

Richard wrote: I've never seen a genuine early Apollo (2xx or 3xx). There still seem to be 3x00 and 4x00-series machines around, although they're by no means common. They seem to be of that class of machine where they're still out there lurking, but it's difficult to get in touch with any of the owners who still have one. I've got a hankering after one of the "last of the line" 4xx-series (i.e. the last genuine Apollos before they became 7xx PA-RISC HP-UX boxes) as they're stylish vintage systems, but still fast enough to feel "useful". Fantastic build quality, too. Sadly they seem far rarer than the 3xxx/4xxx boxes (and IME 2/3 of them have long since lost their Domain keyboard) I've got archives of Domain OS 10.2, which I'm keeping for a rainy day when I eventually do find a 4xx... (of course Domain comes into its own when you have multiple systems, so I'd really like several 4xx systems ;) And I know I've mentioned before that I'd love a DN10k, but there's not exactly much chance of *that* happening! (I'd love to know how many DN10k's they sold... not many, I suspect) cheers Jules
