KayPro Daisywheel Printer Ribbon - Juki 6100

I don't know if you can still get them -- I expect you can -- but I can tell you that the ribbon for a Juki 6100 is an IBM 82 compatible multistrike or single-strike ribbon cassette, same as is used on an IBM Selectric II. I used to use multistrike carbon, but you could also get multistrike fabric and single-strike carbon. Fabric, however, tends to clog the character petals after a while. I no longer have a 6100 nor the user manual but I do have the technical service manual. -- Pete Peter Turnbull Network Manager University of York

need some help....

by archivesoftware＠celebritydirect.net

Hello ~ I was a long-time member of this list, and am a long time collector of classic computers. I've been away from most internet forums and collecting computers in general for several years, but am finally getting back into it. Want to say hello to those that I used to gather so much information from... and hello to the many new acquaintances I look forward to visiting with. Today I was in a "flea market" browsing a pretty good collection of classic game consoles and coimputers, and discovered something I had never seen before. It was a cream-colored unit, with an integrated keyboard and monitor. Size could be considered small.... probably half the size of a TRS-80 model 4... or smaller. No disk drives were present. I believe it was called a Scoutset ??? I also think it was made by Temat and had a model # of HE 415-B . I could be wrong on all of that information, however... but it was something similar. I have a sneaking suspicion this is some type of early word processor, but am unsure. Has anyone seen this before, or have any information on it? Would it be worth picking up? Thank you!

by vcf＠siconic.com

I've Googled a bit but can't seem to find it. Maybe it's out there, maybe not. Maybe you know where? I'm trying to find an online copy of the Apple Super Serial Card manual. I have a physical copy but it's lost in some box somewhere that I haven't turned up yet :( If you know where a copy might be online, could you please let me know? Thanks! -- Sellam Ismail Vintage Computer Festival ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ International Man of Intrigue and Danger http://www.vintage.org * Old computing resources for business and academia at www.VintageTech.com *

NEXTSTEP 3.3 availability?

by sunderwo＠knox.edu

I have been working on getting a NeXT slab that came into my possession into working order since last summer, but have been unable to find a copy of NEXTSTEP to get installed on the system other than the copies Black Hole sells. Black Hole isn't an option for me - I don't think I'll have a spare US$300 laying around for at least a few more years. So does anyone know of a place where I could find a copy of the operating system? Original CD's would be nice, but I would be happy with ISO's, too.

Acetone container swelling; safe to keep? (was: Looking 4...)

by SUPRDAVE＠aol.com

In a message dated 1/5/2003 9:42:22 AM Eastern Standard Time, rdd(a)rddavis.org writes: << Speaking of Acetone, I noticed that an old metal container of it that I have keeps swelling up and creasing the metal a bit after it's reclosed, and vapors hiss out of it when it's opened. The container is slightly rusty, and probably only about six or seven years old. Is this anything to be concerned about? -- Copyright (C) 2002 R. D. Davis >> uh, you think? Since it's rusting, you've got leaks on the way I'm sure. It's cheap enough to replace instead of replacing whatever it damages will would cost more. -- Antique Computer Virtual Museum www.nothingtodo.org

Collectors in Hong Kong?

by vcf＠siconic.com

I've been contacted by someone at CNN International and they want to do a story on someone that collects old computers in Hong Kong. Does anyone have any computer collecting contacts there by any chance? VCF Hong Kong has a nice ring to it ;) -- Sellam Ismail Vintage Computer Festival ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ International Man of Intrigue and Danger http://www.vintage.org * Old computing resources for business and academia at www.VintageTech.com *

I have a still-functioning Xerox 820 II with a double, external 5.25" disk drive. I bought it in 1982, retired it a long time ago, but it is still in good condition. I also have a Xerox 620 daisywheel printer to go with it. Paid approx. $15,000 at the time. I just cannot get myself to throw it away. I would be glad to get it a new home. It still has CPM as operating software.
