Boy, will I have to be careful how I phrase things! My initial response was to Paxton Hoag's public Classiccmp message to me that he had uncovered another SOL (I had previously purchased one from him many months ago). My public response was to thank him but decline, instead suggesting that any other reader of his message or my message might be interested. I then offered to take it if no one else was interested (can't have a SOL go to the junkyard after all). Apparently several people are interested, some of whom have contacted me and some of whom have contacted Paxton. So Paxton has the SOL - contact him for details. (Shall we have a private ClassicCmp eBay.com auction and see who will bid the highest? {{big wicked grin}} We can then replay the messages about everyone's collecting / buying / selling / bidding / anti-eBay / pro-market forces / I'd-rather-give-it-a-good-home philosophies. Are we all unanimous in our support of diverse opinions? - please raise your hands!) However, as the last North American bastion against creeping planned obsolescence (i.e., everything Intel has made since the 8080), as an original SOL owner, and as a current SOL / N* owner, I am happy to share copies of documentation and software for cost of copying plus shipping (or trades - be aware that the SOL manual is very large, but if you can do without the assembly instructions, it's not too bad - it does have good schematics and a detailed theory of operation). I am still in the midst of sorting out some recent ProcTech finds, and will keep the ClassicCmp list updated with what I have uncovered and what is available as I find the time. (Yes, I did find a Helios and no, I haven't hooked it up yet). BTW, whoever said that I had "too many SOLs" ...that's an oxymoron in my book <g> ! Bob Stek bobstek(a)ix.netcom.com Saver of Lost SOLs
