One of my favorite reference magazines was Mini-Micro
Systems which
published from 1976 to 1989 by the Cahners Publications. They printed
10 issues a year along with a Spring and Fall Peripherals Digest. I
think Starting in June 1984 they printed a Mini-Micro computers
special issue.
I have one copy left, the 1983 Fall Peripherals digest. It is what I
was looking for when Jerry was trying to identify the CDC/QD drive he
had.
Unfortunately the model numbers and what is printed on the drive don't
correspond (and from what I remember never did)
Hi, Paxton
well you might be right on that. I have looked high and low
and seem to keep coming up with different numbers for the drives.
Here is what is listed on Mfaris site. for CDC and MPI (both names
are on the label).
