I'll take them. Are they complete? monitor and kbd? It doesn't make a
difference though.

Hi All:
Anyone have the specs for the DIP switch settings for the 8 DIP switches
on a DEC M8357 TX01/RX02 controller?
Thanks,

Subject: Your post on ebay
Hi there,
I'm replying to your post on ebay.
I have an Apple Mac Plus computer purchased in 1988/89. It's in
excellent condition!!! I have all the software, the system 7 upgrade
and other goodies that came with it (plus a hard drive that was custom
built for it). I also have an ImageWriter printer and unopened
ribbons. If you are interested, please let me know and we can discuss
it further. I think I may still have some of the original boxes. I'd
like to find it a good home!!! :)
Best regards,
Mica

looking for old computer toys from the 1950's to 1980's.>>>>>
I was thinking about this the other night {it was a slow night :-)} --
how does the DC option on the PDP-11 work (besides the obvious)? My 11/34
has a DC light on the panel, but I know that my unit did not come with a
battery backup unit.
What was involved with the DC option? Was it a special PSU and
batteries? Or was it a board and separate UPS?
Just curious...

I have one of the 4.5v Lego/Dacta Robotics kits that hooks up to my Apple
IIe (conveniently making this post on-topic). I bought it through the
school when Lego discontinued the kits last year. The system is based on
Logo. The motors and sensors connect to the external interface box,
which is connected to the Apple IIe via a 20 pin ribbon cable and
interface card (which I think is really just a scaled down serial card).
There are touch sensors, optosensors, motors, and lights for the kit. I
currently have mine set up around my 9v Lego train, using the sensors to
detect when it passes, the motors to raise and lower the crossing gates.
There's nothing better than mixing computers and Lego!

There's been a few HERO's on ebay lately. (Don't ask what they sold for.)
Similarly, does anyone remember a truck-like thing (big trax?) that you
could program sorta like LOGO? I remember the commercials showed it
bringing a soda (or beer?) to one lucky owner. Unfortunately, my family's
gift budgets never would have covered such a nifty gadget... 8^(

While browsing several old BYTE magazines, I came across an ad for the
Signetics Instructor 50 SBC. Althoug the ad wasn't very good, it looks like
it could be an SBC style S-100 Altair clone with a hex keypad, display, and
data switches. Sort of an Altair-KIM hybrid (if one can imagine such a
thing).
Does anyone have any info on this beast?

The last thing I remember is his role as some kind of chairman for
Tandon - somewhen around 1989 or 1990.

I need to test a possibly bad PSU for an Apple II+. Can anyone
(tony?) tell me what I should use for a dummy load?
Thanks.
