Recent stuff I've acquired...

To add to my burgeoning collection, I must admit after joining this list I don't go past a 'second-hand' store without going in for a look :-) Over the last couple of weeks i've acquired.. * Various dumb terminals VT220's etc, some work some don't * An Apple IIc complete with monitor etc, now suitable modified with a 4-pin power plug to accomodate a PC 12v supply, and a DB-25 attached directly to the board for serial comms to my PC. Interestingly this IIc is an original motherboard, but with a Crystal hand-wired onto the board in place of the 74LS chip, thus avioding the IIc serial problem. I'll get around to documenting this mod soon, as I have not seen it anywhere. * A Mac+ suitable for conversion to a MacQuarium * A rather interesting Barcode reader/analyser with some form of microprocessor, an Intermec Trakker 9440, the Battery is totally dead, and I can't seem to find any info on the power supply voltage and as such haven't been able to power it up, but it's 10 years old (date 1988), at least I should be able to do something with the barcode wand. Anyone got any info on these? * A DEC TK50Z (found at the local recycling centre, and works fine) Cheers Karl ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Karl Maftoum Computer Engineering student at the University of Canberra, Australia Email: k.maftoum(a)student.canberra.edu.au
