Hello All,
I've got a large pile of magazines that I'm getting rid of. If you're
interested in any of these they are yours for the asking (or for
shipping/packing if you aren't local.)
If I can't find any takers by Wednesday 3/22 then it's off to the
recycler.
What I've got is:
PC Magazine: Jan 1985 through Dec. 19, 1995 (11 years), with only 2
missing in 1992.
PC World: 1985 through Dec., 1994 (10 years), with some
missing issues in 1987 and 1988.
Personal Computing: April 1985 through August 1990, and May 1993 through
April 2000.
There may be a few more or a few less. This was a quick-scan inventory.
Please let me know if you'd like any of them.

I pickup two HP Vectra ES/12 computers last week with the HP 82321 BASIC
Language Processor cards in them. But they've been sitting long enough that
the CMOS batteries have died and now they don't recognize the hard drives.
Does anyone know where I can find a copy of the CMOS setup program? The
Vectra ES computers aren't even listed on HP's (or I should say Compaq's!)
website any more and I've searched the net and can't find it there either.
I think the BIOS was written by Phoenix and I thought I'd try their setup
program but I can't even find an old version that on the net. Phoenix's
site now only talks about AWARD BIOS since they bought them out.

but...it doesn't work.
bare drive.
yours for the postage (it doesn't weigh much).
Also,
RZ25 -- free (don't know whether it works or not).
Also,
lots of MMJ cables (some DEC, some I made). Most are 10 or 12 feet;
some are
even longer.
you can contact me via email, having made the obvious replacement:

Macintosh SE 4meg with dual floppies. Booted up fine off an external drive.
No video problems. Fan is noisy but works. Case needs cleaning.
Macintosh SE FDHD 4/40. Boots system 6.08. Case is yellowed, but not
excessive. Works fine and no video problems.
Hows about $7 each plus whatever it costs to ship from zip 27703.
Ok, finally got confirmation so I can make this preliminary announcement.
VCF East 2.0 will be held either June 25-26 or July 16-17 at Sun
Microsystems's Burlington, Massachusetts, campus. Note: these dates are
FRIDAY and SATURDAY. A break from the traditional VCF weekend but one
that was necessitated by matters outside my control. At any rate, you
take a day off work and have all day Sunday to relax.
I'll hopefully have confirmed dates by the end of the week.
In the meantime, you can at least REGISTER AS AN EXHIBITOR:
http://www.vintage.org/2004/east/exhibit.php
(note: rules not yet updated)
...or perhaps you'd like to REGISTER AS A VENDOR:
http://www.vintage.org/2004/east/vendor.php
The event is being completely sponsored by Sun and will feature several
talks from Sun employees on various aspects of Sun's history. This event
is likely to be BIG. Possibly rivalling the main VCF in Sillycon Valley.
Sorry for the long delay but this is really a go now!
