Hello List,
A friend of mine has recently acquired an HP9000/735, and he's looking
to get an ethernet adapter for it. (it either didn't have one, or the one
he had was less than functional).
It is HP PN A2095-66584, the AUI ethernet board for an HP 735. He would
also be interested in the thin lan card instead, if someone has one of
those available for sale.
thanks a lot in advance.

hmmm... 735's have a big multiple jumper for selecting either
the AUI or BNC connectors; was this jumper set properly?
All network cards for the 735 that I know have both BNC
and AUI (except, of course for the FDDI card).
BTW, nice machine he got. I have several.

What he's looking for is the small module that fits the main system board,
not an EISA adapter. These little modules seem to come either as AUI or
Thin, but not a combination.
thanks for your input...

The 755's I had used an EISA card and adapter for second ethernet.
The 735's I've seen seem to have the network adapter on the motherboard
(I thought).

It's apparently a little module that fits onto the system board (not a
transceiver, at least not in the traditional sense). I'm not sure, as I
haven't seen this myself. I'm just poking around for a friend.
He's got one, but it seems to lose ridiculous numbers of packets. He
tried a second module (not his to keep) and it worked perfect. Thus, the
search for an ethernet module.

My wife is interviewing for a job in Virginia Beach VA, If she gets it we will
be moving out there...
Anyone know of any Halted/Weirdstuff type shops in the Virginia Beach/Norfolk
and surrounding area? These are the kind of place where when a business has
excess electronic equipment it's resold via them.(Ie Halted bids on lots of
electronic stuff then sells it to the public.)

DRMO (US Navy Scrap) right outside the Base, IIRC. Since I was on a
Aircraft Carrier at the time I didn't have the room to check them out, but
I gather they have occasional auctions. You'll probably not find much in
Virginia Beach, but Norfolk/Portsmouth should have some. Remember that's
that's the worlds largest Navy Base.
Now if you wanted to know about RPG/Wargamming stores in that area....

All the DRMO surplus sales in this area are now being handled by a
commercial company (levy-Latham). I think they're handling ALL the DRMO
sales for the south East US. LL doesn't even notify you of their sales
unless you're a mega-huge dealer and all the "scrap" is removed from the
stuff before the "good" stuff is put up for auction. The DRMO sales here
used to fill several buildings and a large parking lot. I went to a LL sale
last week and it filled a ~ 1500 s.f. building and there was NO old
computer stuff in it. BTW DRMO does have a web site so you should be able
to find their locations on it.
