It was always my experience ... I think NeXTstep had a reputation of being
a little balky on the proprietary NeXT hardware. I am fortunate to have a
decent swath of their product line ... an original '030 Cube, a Color slab
and a Turbo Color slab and even on the Turbo slab with 32 megs RAM and a

Hello Paul,
good luck for your surgery! I hope there's nothing too bad.
As for the "business", I sent you more emails in the last months,
unfortunately no answer at all...
maybe I went direct to spam? :(
Anyway, when you are back good, please let me know something.
Thanks

I'd go to a 16500C. Handy do-everything analyser mainframe, which can
have a scope and a pattern generator (mine has it all) integrated. Modular
and most parts are WAY CHEAP.
Of course you can go one step higher and get the 17500.

Ditto. Well, I can't remember which model I was given, it's the one that's
maxed out with

That's good to hear.
2 weeks ago I got an HP1630D and last week a 1631.
Both came with pods, but the first one did not have the "plug"
with the test leads, and the second one did. So I bought the second
one too for the plugs with leads. The 1631 looks quite identical to
the 1630, but the 1631 has

JOOI, does anyone know when Panaplex 7-segment displays started going the

I'll assume that you've seen the "roll your own" panaplex displays.
Does that count as manufacture?

Jumping in on the bandwagon.
A few years back, I had a friend loan me his NeXT slab for about a year. 25 Mhz
CPU. Everything pretty much stock.
My observation of the default GUI was it was pretty darn quick, not even taking
into account the hardware it was running on.
