What I'd like to know is if anyone has any hard info on the Intercept
Jr. or the Jolt. I have brief descriptions in a 1978 Popular Electronics
special issue in a section reviewing "all" of the available microcomputers
of the day.
I've got the manual(s) for the Intercept Jr. I think I even know where
they are :)
My copy of the IM6100 and Intercept Jr. docs is in electronic-only form. I received it in
the form of multi-page TIF files awhile back and converted it all to PDF for my personal
use. I've decided to risk the bandwidth-suck of putting some of it up on some
webspace of mine. The IM6100 datasheet and the Intercept Jr. Manual, including
schematics, will shortly be available at
http://sasteven.multics.org/IM6100/ Please note
that the Intercept Jr. Manual is a huge 13.5 meg scanned PDF. Individual pages, i.e. the
schematics, etc. can be made available as stand-alone pages if need be. I have datasheets
in this format for the whole 6100 series chipset family and also the larger Intercept
system. For those who want the whole thing, it would be much more practical to send out
CDRs in the mail. If someone wants to host all this info they are welcome to it.
