I picked up a complete HP-86B system this weekend. System box, monitor,
two dual floppy drives, printer, plotter, documentation, three shoeboxes full of
Basic, CP/M and UCSD p-System software and a slew of expansion carts,
including:
(4) 128K RAM Memory Expansion
(2) ROM Expansion w/ Assembler, Matrix, Printer, Plotter ROMS
System Monitor
Auxiliary Processor
HPIB Interface
CP/M System
Voice Synthesizer
Four-slot Extender Interface
I'd written software for the HP-85 years ago and picked one up a few months
back, so this is a veritable gold mine of Series 80 goodies.
Two wannas: Does anyone have a spare Sun monitor that would work
with a 3/80?
About 10 days ago, I picked up a Lisa 2 with a ProFile
drive, but no connector cable. Any leads on where I might
snag a cable?

Subject: Good weekend
Well Saturday made up for a slow week of finds. In that one day I was able
to pick up and save the following: Commodore 1902 monitor, 2-Mac 128's one
with KB & mouse, Platinum Mac Plus with KB & mouse, Apple IIgs with RGB
monitor & ext 3.5 & 51/4 drives,Epson FX80 printer, 4-Kraft joysticks new in
box, Applecolor Composite monitor, Mac numpad/trackball combo by
Assimilation, SB midi kit, and BluePrint C64 cartridge.
Also during the week picked up a Okidata OL400 laser for $5 and Radius
Powerview $8 both from Goodwill. From Savers got a new in box Softstrip
System Reader by Cauzin.
That was my week for the most part other manuals and software that I got. I
should have enough Mac's to fill the request I have from some of you by the
end of next week.
Keep computing!

Unless I'm terribly mistaken, the ProFile connector cable is just a
straight pass-thru 25 pin cable, similar to an RS232 serial cable. I'll
have to go home and look at mine, but I'm fairly sure you could just
build or buy a similar cable.
