I'm always on the lookout for user manuals, service manuals, or what
have you for all types of hardware. Let me no the postage to send a box
of manuals to zip 55110. Thanks John

Subject: newbie intro - free TRS stuff
Hello to all fellow classic computer enthusiasts!
I just heard about this mailing list last week. I'm glad to have
found
such an active discussion group. My primary interest
is the
pple ][ & ///
series. (I am a member of the venerable Washington
Apple Pi.) I
would be
happy to swap private email with like-minded folks on
this mailing
list. I
am always in search of Apple hardware for my
collection, please send
email
if you have such to unload. Suggestions of
individuals and companies
who
deal in old Apple hardware are also always welcome. I
enjoy the old
machines, but have been driven nearly mad trying to find hardware that
people are actually willing to sell.
ATTENTION TRS COLLECTORS: last year I inherited an enormous quantity
of
software and hardware from an old TRS business
network. The console,
terminals, cards, and printer are gone. All that remains is available
for
the cost of shipping, to good homes. I have five
large boxes of 8
inch
disks, with multiple copies of Xenix, with manuals.
Many other boxes
of
system manuals and other sundries are also available.
I also have an
external hard drive, "Tandy Thirtyfive Meg Disk System."
While I do not collect Tandy, I just can't bear the thought of all
this
stuff going to a landfill. I know how I feel when I
am occasionally
subjected to someone's story of how a friend of theirs had a "bunch of
old
Apple stuff, but finally just threw it all away last
year."
Anyone within driving distance of south-central Pennsylvania is
welcome to
come and look at everything. It's all free. If
you want it, just
arrange
to come and pick it up.
Regards & Happy 4th,
Arthur Clark
