Really? I figured it would be worth more as a whole. But I guess it does
make some sense to be willing to part out the 5114, and then just sell
the 5110 with its manuals.
This will definitly be the thought running thru my head for the next
while... to sell or not to sell... how to put a price on the physical
first computer you used.

Not to beat a dead horse, but the last year a 273 could be had in a
Barracuda was 1967. No ifs, ands, or buts. 1968 was the last year of the
273, period. Amusingly, one of my cars' emissions tests says it has a 283,
stupid emissions testings place... In all the emissions things I have, the
engine size is variously reported as 273, 283, 318, or 340, and yes it
easily passed no matter which one it was thought to be. I guess a 74 with a
318 might be slow, wouldn't know, but I know E-bodies weigh a good deal more
than my A-body. I have a 69 318 in my fastback, which despite having a two
barrel and being backed with an automatic, used to regularly stomp ricers,
well before I started restoring it of course.. I wish I had the 273 still,
but that was replaced before my time, it suffered from an engine rebuild
performed by the automotive equivalent of braindead monkeys. Anyway, if
anyone wants further info about my cudas or whatnot, feel free to e-mail me
offlist..

283 would be a Chevy engine, Ford would be a 289. Best stick with
computers guys !!!

Many years ago, I owned an MZ-80K. With it, were a whole stack of
magazines, which (IIRC) were called Sharpsoft User Group, or something
similar to that.
Sadly, I sold that MZ-80K to a friend (along with all the mags), and
they (comp & mags) have long since passed into oblivion.
The thing is, those magazines were worth more than their weight in gold,
in terms of information about the MZ-80 series computers; there was
loads of type-in software, stuff about peeks & pokes, and so on & so
forth. Thing is, I cannot find a single reference on the internet to
Sharpsoft, save for some unrelated stuff, and a couple of references to
cash registers. :(
So, does anyone else remember the Sharpsoft mags (incidentally, they are
unrelated to the UK-based Sharp Users Group), if so does anyone *have*
any, and if so can I either buy/trade/borrow them?
Thanks in advance!

Norwegian teenager acquitted in DVD film cracking case
Tue Jan 7, 7:26 PM ET
By DOUG MELLGREN, Associated Press Writer
OSLO, Norway - Hollywood didn't get its happy ending when a Norwegian court
acquitted a teenager of digital burglary charges for creating and
circulating online a program that cracks the security codes on DVDs.
Tuesday's ruling, a blow to the entertainment industry's drive to curtail
illegal copying of its movies, was a key test in how far copyright holders
can go in preventing duplication of their intellectual property.
Jon Lech Johansen, who was 15 when he developed and posted the program on
the Internet in late 1999, said he developed the software only to watch DVD
movies he owned on a Linux-based computer that lacked DVD-viewing software.

As per subject; I can't find anything on Google which matches HP 98564...
I'm wondering if it's a typo, as it claims to be a 9000 series (so, either
a 9564, a 9856, a 9854 or a 9864 is my guess), but can anyone shed any light?

I think if I ever somehow had a drastic increase in cash flow, I would
likely buy nearly every pre-1980 or so mopar I could get my hands on,
especially 67-69 barracudas.. I dunno, 2 1967s just isn't enough... Of
course, I would immediately be shot by my parents but yeah..

I have come across an Osborne model OCC1 Serial # 134033. This unit has the
300 baud modem. It also has 5 1/4 disk with it. (SuperCalc, WordStar,
Qbasic) The unit boots up and runs the software but after about 15 to 20
minutes it starts to overheat.(smoke)
My question is - What is the selling price for a unit like this and where
would be the best place to sell it?
Thanks for your help,
