Mouse,
I am interested in your HP stuff if nobody has claimed it. Unfortunately I am not in
Ottawa, so that would involve shipping. I tried to reach you via email but both my
personal and work email were blocked by your server. Send me a message off line if you
want.

Okay, I took a bit more time going through my storage.
(a) The SparQs are indeed disks; I didn't look closely enough.
(b) Some more stuff:
- Three disks, which IIRC came out of a MicroVAX-II. Two are
Micropolis 1325Ds and the third is a plain 1325. Also present are
two sets of cables, each set suitable to connect one drive to a
controller card.
- One HP 9153A (an HP-IB device; it appears to be a 3.5" floppy drive).
- One HP 7958A (an HP-IB device; it appears to be disk).
- One HP card, likely the interface card from something like a 7958A.
It has an HP-IB connector, an ID switch, two connectors for cables to
the drive, and a connector apparently for power. In the etch on the
component side is the number 07957-60001; on a sticker, below a
barcode, is the text *57CNO14515* (or perhaps *57CN014515*, the font
is ambiguous).
As before, this stuff is in Ottawa, and is yours for the coming and
picking it up. Functionality is unknown, and details may be incorrect
because they were hand-copied.
