STM Pied Piper

Hi folks, Hurrah for moderated mailing lists - I hope. This may be a brief visit but since I got broadband at home it's not so much of an issue now. Anyway, in June '00 Hans (if he's still here) posted questions about the Semi-Tech Pied Piper and at the time I knew where there were some but hadn't had a chance to go get 'em. Mark Gregory also had questions since he had one but no docs. In the last few weeks I've been able to pick them up and was most impressed to find that one of them was an original prototype with a serial number of 38. At this point we won't go into the fact the keyboard connector is missing a post - it has 23 instead of 24 which causes some strange but expected issues when the keyboard is plugged in wrongly. I'm now in a position to answer PP related questions since I've a) got the technical manuals, b) spent a bit of time making 1 good machine (the prototype) out of 2 bad ones and c) got a bundle of disks I can hopefully make images out of if my PC's 5 1/4" drive is working. Sellam wanted pictures (nothing like being over 2 years late) so go to www.binarydinosaurs.co.uk, hit 'inhabitants' and go to the STM section. cheers, -- adrian/witchy www.binarydinosaurs.co.uk - the online computer museum www.snakebiteandblack.co.uk - monthly gothic shenanigans
