If he doesn't let go of it, get back to me, I think that's the
trash-80 book I pulled off a garbage pile a few years back. It
won't be in pristine condition, of course.
Just lemme know...

Wow, can I buy that one from you? That book introduced me as a kid
to programming, and (with the help of Tron and Wargames) made me
who I am!

I just returned from a flying trip to Newark, Ny and returned with a
working IBM Series 1, dated 1979. Also with it were a number of spare
cpu's a complete 4997 and asorted parts. The only thing really missing
were side skins. I also was given a genuine IBM timeclock, possibly as
old as the late '30's, as it eschews the IBM name for "International"
There may be some spare ADM31's if anyone is interested.

Speaking of IBM timeclocks, look at this baby in the IBM museum in
Singelfinded, Germany:

If you ever get out to the southern region of Germany (Singelfinden is two
hours northwest of Munich) I highly recommend you take the time to visit
the IBM Museum there. Hundreds of IBM machines going back to the
Hollerith census tabulating machine (well, a replica at least), ALL
WORKING!!

Errr... (*G*) Sallam, it's Sindelfingen, and a suburb of Stuttgart
(Please never tell this to one of the locals, they still belive to
live in a city of their own :) - this may help to locate it a bit
better for some members.
Still, the Museum is woth more than one visit ... but it's only
open every thursday afternoon from 14:00 to 17:00 - and only on
an apointment base.

just in case he does not. Thanks!
