More spring cleaning. This time it's a Corona Data Systems PC.
Kinda like an old Compaq unit. Has floppy and hard disk, but does not
boot up.

Paul, the key switches look very much like this but on my unit the plastic stem
is black. The cross piece etc looks to be the same.

the one in the Nimitz keyboard?I have a two switches with broken
stems, that I have glued for now but it would be nice to get replacement
and a few spares.

So I had a random thought in the wee hours this morning and I leave it
to you, the cctalk braintrust, to tell me exactly how stupid this idea is:
I have a VAX-11/750, an Able QNiverter (UNIBUS->Qbus adapter), a 22-bit
Qbus backplane, and a VCB02 (QDSS) 4-bit graphics boardset.

Marc, I'm scrapping a 9826 right now as part of a clean-up of the HP Computer
Museum and have a keyboard (or specific keycaps) and power switch available for
the cost of shipping. If you have any specific IO boards you are after I might
have some of those spare as well.
Let me know.

Bob,
I might not take the whole machines, but I could use parts. I am missing a few
key caps/switches and a power switch on mine (the three of them which come...
from you!). And extra IO boards are always welcome. Before you scrap
everything, let me know if I can come on Sunday.

about 15-20 minutes. You might check to see if they still do that.
Otherwise, head to Sham Shui Po, Apliu Street is the local electronics ha

I have just looked into my two TU56 and all caps are leaking more or less.

Although it is all new equipment, Wan Chai computer mall near Causeway Bay is
worth a visit. I think it is on Hennessy Road.
There are 100's of small stalls there, you can get some good bargains if you
take cash and haggle.

If you ever have the chance to go to HK again, definitely also get your Chinese
visa. I used to travel to China and I used to only get 3 and 6 month visas. But
in the last year or two, they now grant 10 year visas which I obtained although
I have no current plans to visit china. Although I don’t
Thanks everyone for the ideas, however I cannot leave Hong Kong and enter
China. That requires a different visa that I didn't obtain and I don't
have the time to travel that far.
