I doubt he will ship. This would be Waukesha county, Southeastern
Wisconsin, most likely. I don't know this fellow personally but I thought
someone who is interested in this gear should know about it, because he's
already stated he will toss the stuff in the dumpster if no one expresses
interest.

While at Barnes & Noble the other night I found a DX book titled
"Collectibles Price Guide 2006" by Judith Miller ISBN 0-2566-1339-6. In it
where prices for several classic systems and in another section prices for
early gaming systems with the most way out value being a Virtual Boy for
$200+. Check it out at your local book store.

I have a brand new lcd and kb, may as well put them to
good use. Also looking for an *OT* Thinkpad 770 or
equivalent (one that uses the 10.4 inch lcd). Any
Zenith Minisport parts (or working) machines, and need
a charger, or details about it.

I designed some instant-display chip-fail display systems years ago. We
were probing
full wafers of chips. First thing I saw, first image that worked, was a
image of the
probes reaching in from all sides, to the chip. We forgot to turn off the
microscope illuminator, which was BRIGHT!
Guys got into scratching their initials on a chip, and saving the bitmap...

Happened to come across this gorgeous triple bay HP rack. It's the perfect
(accurate) type for an HP2000/TSB system. Correct PMU/PDU's, etc.

Scroll down about 9/10ths of the way... under heading "triple rack cabinets"
http://www.alltronics.com/images/RackZZ.jpg is a bigger picture.
If someone wants a really nice setup for HP gear, this is the right one :)

I know, I know! And I was a bit disappointed that he didn't grind
down the top of the failed chip to do a proper repair. :-)
Of course, he can regain the extra point by giving an explanation
of why swapping a chip is allowed under the proper interpretation
of the official repair rules.

Onderwerp: RX02 and intel hex file tools
I am building an eprom adapter for a DEC Unibus M9301 bootstrap
terminator so I can use 8bit wide 2732 eproms in place of the 4bit wide
fuse proms. The goal is to boot RX02 disks which the M9301 roms don't
support
Are there any good unix tools for manipulating intel hex files or any
binary image files?
I have the M9312 boot/diagnostic prom images which are intel hexfile. I
modified Eric Smith's program so that I could obtain intel hexfile
images of the proms that are not scrambled for the M9312.
I need to join them and then create an image file so that my DataIO 201
burner will accept them. The burner can accept intel, motorola and
tektronix formats. I have used the intel format, but not the other two
with this burner.
A quick search found srecord which claims to manipulate various formats,
but is written in C++ (which I don't speak) and does not compile in
Linux (Fedora Core 3).
Basically, I need to take several binary images (now in intel hex), move
them to a different address, join them together, and then burn them on
an eprom.

Definitely worth tinkering with, and the price is right. 8^)=
The 7192 is equivalent to over 3500 logic gates, you could fit
a simple processor in one.

Hi,
I have a total of 3 units, one or two of each (VT or WD). Feel free to make
an offer. I can test them up to a point, or sell them as is. Feel free to make
an offer. Anything else you need?
Thanks, Paul
