I guess I'd might as well send my 'hello' to everyone on the list, and
"advertise" my collection. I'm mostly into early personal microcomputers,
say 1976-1986. I just started collecting a couple of years ago, so there
are still a lot of big holes in my list. Here it is:
IBM PC 3*IBM PC XT IBM PC AT IBM PCjr Compaq Plus AT&T PC 6300
Compuadd 220 Tandy 1000HX Tandy TRS-80 Mod. 1, 2, 3 3*TI-99/4A
Tandy CoCo 1, 2, 3 2*Timex Sinclair 1000 Timex Sinclair 2068
Point Four Mark 3 (minicomputer) Netronics Elf II Intel iPDS-100
Intel SDK-51 and SDK-2920 Kaypro II HP 9825B HP-85B 3*TI 32010EVM
Compupro CPU68K-816 Microlink STD-145 Motorola M68HC16Z1EVB
(these last three sit in idle storage because I have no idea what to do
with them, but they were free)
HP model 46 calculator Magnavox Odyssey2
12 Multibus CPU cards - 8080, 8086, 8088, 80188, 80186, and 80286
a whole mess of Multibus I/O, memory, disk controllers, etc.
Intel 86/310 and Teradyne (something-or-other) Multibus chassis
Hazeltine 1420, Zenith Z-29, Wyse WY-50, and 3*Data General terminals
Printers! NEC Spinwriter, 2*Tandy DMP-130, Tandy DWP-210, Anadex DP-6500,
Timex Sinclair 2040, several DMP's
parts, parts, parts
and if you'll consider it, 80 Darome Model 730 speakerphones, which used
an 8031/8155 to control some latches controlling quad bilateral switches
controlling impedance matching. These things were meant to be modified!
Well, that's my list. I'm looking forward to lengthing it at a hamfest
this Sunday.
Incidentally, would anyone know if Anadex is still in business, or if I
could find a manual for my DP-6500 printer through another source? This
thing has about 30 DIP switches on it, and I'd like to get it running.
