Has anyone ever seen either of these? They're introduced in the Tektronix
catalog for 1973, pg. 277. I cannot find pictures of either of these
peripherals in any catalog. The cassette drive appeared in only the
1973 catalog and the tape punch/reader appeared for only three years.
Prices:
4911 4912
1973 $2950 $1950
1974 $2950
1975 $3295
I've collated together all the graphics/terminal products from the
various Tektronix catalogs together into a single PDF file:
<http://www.xmission.com/~legalize/vintage/docs/tektronix/Tektronix_Terminal…>
This includes the storage scope displays and related equipment, but
omits all the oscilloscope, test equipment and microprocessor development
system stuff. It does include the workstations, however.

A friend has a well preserved IBM 3430 tape drive (off an IBM
System/38) and we speculated whether we could connect this to one of
our AS/400s, which we understand is possible via a suitable SPD card.
Before we try to usually difficult process of negotiating down the
high prices offered by various eBay sellers, does anyone have any
surplus bus/tag cables and terminators (for both) which they can offer
please?
Here are pictures of the IBM 3430 and most of the cables etc:

Hey is anybody running INN, especially under Solaris 10?
I am using leafnode under Linux and I'm mostly happy with it but I'm
thinking about moving this service off my desktop and running it on a
server, probably under Solaris 10. I figured while I am at it maybe I
should consider INN because of the option of using a different spool
format that is supposed to increase performance significantly. Recovering
or moving my news spool which is not that big at around 4G takes forever
(not that I do it a lot, but I have done it and it's a pain) and now the
startup each time a client connects takes a while. I think I'm outgrowing
leafnode.
I'm curious how much work it takes to administer INN for a small network to
know if it's worth it or just overkill. Specifically, I want to be able to
only host groups I want (about 500) including local-only groups rather
than doing a complete usenet grab, and I would like to be able to support
SSL connections directly. I use stunnel now on Linux but I've had some
problems with it on Solaris 10, so if INN supports it directly that would
be a plus.
If anybody has any comments or suggestions I would appreciate it. Thanks.

For those of you like me who run a decently sized home server network, I am
unhappily having to leave DSL Extreme (who have treated me pretty well)
because the new house, despite having AT&T, is apparently not in their service
area.
I'm trying to find a new DSL ISP that serves Southern California that offers
at least 5 static IPs at a decent rate (6/608, etc) and does not block ports
as I run a mail server off it. Nationwide ISPs are fine if they are good,
better still if I can prequal and compare rates online.
So far rejected Speakeasy after the Covad/Megapath debacle. Now looking at
Linkline, Pacific Internet and Keyway.
Please reply offlist since this is super off-topic. :)

Anyone on the list have an ISO of vms 4.2 I could get a copy of?
I have vms v1, v2, v3, and v7+ but seem to have misplaced the images of versions inbetween.
It'd be much appreciated.
Yes, I have several licenses (purchased with real vax machines)
thanks muchly!
Dan.
All,
I received an email message from Fred Bossu, who used to be a
subscriber to this list, but unsubscribed in 2010 and has been
unsuccessfully trying to re-subscribe.
If someone can handle this, drop me a line and I'll forward his
message to you.

Folks,
Had an email from someone who has a Rainbow with RD5x, RX50, VR241,
keyboard, manuals and software. He'd prefer collection only but there's a
chance I can meet him half way at the weekend so I can ship from work but
bear in mind this will be a heavy consignment!
Let me know and I'll get back to him ASAP.
Cheers,
