I have a source willing to get me 4 RL02 drives, a
bunch of cartridges for
same, and a bunch of RK05 packs - all located in Rochester, NY. He's not sure
he wants to ship. Any chance a listmember could pick up for me and ship for a
fee?
From same source I might also get a microvax, RSX
distros and manuals, etc.
I now have an RK05 drive, so I am hoping to get my 8E up and running in a
real
fashion. Still need 16 sector packs for the RK05
though. Oh, and I also
recently acquired an HP-85, man that thing is cute!
Yeap, they make nice little instrument controllers. I was reading 'Fire
in the Valley' last night and it has a chapter on the HP-85. Funny to think
that HP actually thought that the 85 could compete with the IBM PC as a
general purpose computer!
Anyone have an assembler
rom module they will part with, and an advanced
programming rom? Or better
yet, has anyone managed to reproduce the ... whatsit called... rom
programming
pack, so you can copy the roms and use them that way?
Yes, someone has that going and I think you can download the ROM images
off of the net now. But I THINK you have to have the Programmable ROM
Assembly. I haven't kept up with it and I'm sure that VP or someone else
here can tell you more than I can.
