Wanted Systems - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

8 Apr 1997

I can't believe you have Nova 1200's.  I used a 1220 in the late 70's in
high school and it was old then.

Ours actually had a hard drive which was about 36" on a side, covered
with woodgrain vinyl, with a capacity of a MEGABYTE!!

I might still have the source to my Nova multiuser Star Trek around
someplace.  It was so popular it got banned from the system since it
slowed everything down too much.

    I've seen a certain amount of conversation as to the
 appropriateness
 of "For Sale" messages on the list. So long as it doesn't get out of
 hand, some of the posts can be quite useful (like the one on IMSAI
 switches, for instance). How about "Wanted Systems" posts?

    I'm looking to flesh out my collection of 16-bit Data General
 hardware, and am looking for leads to systems, or systems themselves.
 Anything in the Nova/Eclipse line is fair game, with the exception
 of the 32-bit MV series (although I hope somebody is preserving
 them!).
 Any documentation is, of course, more than welcome.

    Thanks!
