I've heard printers referred to as musical before, but never so
literally...

For those who want even more floppy disk drive produced music, try
this guy: https://www.youtube.com/user/Sammy1Am (One that I find quite
fun: http://youtu.be/pOA9PGYeP3E )
Plus, I believe that the CHM has some sound clips of an IBM 1403
printer playing music. (Don't ask me for a link; I don't remember
where it is any more.)
Not really classic computer related; but here's music play be a tesla
coil: http://youtu.be/hgll-XTqcS4 (Same user page has several more
pieces of music on said tesla coils.)
Cheers all.

Hi
There is an Olivetti M20 up on ebay now. This is the
machine with the Z8001 processor.
I have one of these and they are an interesting machine
to use. There is a CP/M8000 as well as the original PCOS.
A number of us have collected quite a number of application
and such.
The bad part of the machine is that it is in Clinton, Washington
for local pickup.
It looks complete but the fellow says the video screen doesn't
connect. I've asked him for a picture of the back of the machine
because he doesn't show that. It makes me wonder if there
is a motherboard in it. If there is, it is worth someone
getting. I've seen others before but without the video
screen they are difficult to use.
The video plugs onto the mother board.

Ahh, too bad. He just sent me pictures of the back.
It is missing the mother board :(.
Sorry about that.
