I'm sorry about fouling up the title to this thing . . . it's about those
old FDC/HDC Doc's etc, I ran across a couple of months ago. A few were
missing, though I knew I had them somewhere. Now that they're found, I'm
trying to make a machine-readable and therefore searchable database.
If anyone wants copies, or if anyone can help with preparing these documents
for, of finding an accessible and stabile site for publication on the web,
your input/suggestions are welcome.

In case anyone's interested, I've found my
missing manual for the OMTI 10A
SASI-bus-to-SA1000/Q2000 8" hard disk bridge controller and am scanning it.
I also have the manual for the XEBEC 1410, as well as the WD1000&1002-05,
as
well as the 1000-55 and 1001 from Western Digital. All
these will be
reduced to machine readable form eventually.
If there's any urgency to your own need(s), let me know and I'll adjust the
priority accordingly.

Last night I found a strange metal plate in one of
the pockets of
one of my IBM 5100 manuals. It is stainless steel. Link here for
a scan:

Can anyone identify this? It does not appear related to
DC300 tapes. Thanks, all.
