Hi
I'd be more interested in getting a Beehive terminal.
Intel blue would be nice.

Some
folks have an idea that these things are scarce,
which they aren't.
Just as a supporting argument you might want to list two or
three places where a person could go and get one of these.

I also have been looking for a particular mini-beehive terminal. Not sure of
the exact model, I'd have to see a picture. Trying to get one like the one I
used in high school for HP2000/Access. I do remember is was a brownish/cream
color, the keyboard was a separate unit but fit in front into a recess so it
was not always obvious it was a separate unit. I think one or two of the
keys (maybe caps lock) had an led in the side.

I have a scanned photo of a Beehive terminal from a manual at
http://www.decodesystems.com/beehive-terminal.gif
However, this one doesn't look like the keyboard detaches.

This one in the picture of Dan's is quite similar to the one I'm looking
for! Yet it is different. I would hazzard a guess that the one I'm looking
for is a later model than the one in Dan's picture.
Ah, the memories!

...reminds me of the InterTube II I used to have. Wasn't it basically a
SuperBrain without the drives and "real" computer?

I have one but mine doesn't have that dished out look and it does have a
detachable keyboard. I'll see about taking a picture of in a day or two
when the weather is better.

New subject: Trade? Power Mac 8500 for IBM PS/2 model 60/65SX or 80 tower.
Want to trade my working Power Mac 8500/200 with few goodies in it.
200MHz cpu card, 176MB, 256K cache stick, 4MB vram (all four slots
filled), 2.1GB SCSI non-apple rom but formatted & bootable. 2x
speed CDROM apple rom. Working.
Has A/V personality card. (RCA ports Video and stereo in and out,
S-video and one other special AV plug).
The PCI slots is waiting to be filled.
What I want to trade that Mac for:
One PS/2 tower any of PS/2 model 60, 65SX or 80 (16, 20 or 25MHz
doesn't matter). What I need go with that tower:
Rails for the FH 5.25" HDs or rack to hold two 5.25" HDs, one 1.44MB
floppy (can be sick or working) Parts to mount cdrom drive.
Hopefully to get but not required: MCA adapter that holds 2.5"
laptop HD or MCA to IDE adapter card. Also would like a ESDI MCA
card (that one that can support any ESDI not just IBM ESDI drives up
to 1GB, I got couple of monster ESDI HDs.
Did third-party built memory modules that adapts standard
parity SIMMs? Then I would like a pair but I can make do with my
pair of 4MB module cards for my loose 80 system board except I have
no case or power supply to stuff the parts in.
Ebay route I'm not interested.
Thanks & Cheers,
Wizard
PS: I also have most of parts for 90 XP except no case.

Out of curiousity, why? That's a fairly fast Mac, and you're looking for a
fairly slow PC. I'm guessing you have a specific use in mind for the PS/2.

Dwight,
I have one, come and get it. It's marked Intel and it's Intel blue.
