Nice. That's identical to the 8m panels I have, except the the 'f' instead of
the 'm'. I like the separation of the LED rows on these panels.

So my house sold yesterday after < 3 days on the market (the market here is

I have about two months to move, so a bunch of stuff has to disappear.
Location is the Vancouver, BC, Canada region (Port Moody more precisely).
Most of this stuff is larger and I'm not going to have a lot of time

Hi Brent,
I'd be interested in the TRS-80 model 100...
Sorry for replying on-list, but I've sent you
private emails in the past and got no reply so I
suspect I may not be getting through for some
reason.
I think I've got a scrap XT keyboard somewhere in
case someone needs a key or two.

1. The 8289, being bipolar, draws an absurd amount of current on +5V.
Well ov
Further to my earlier message today, something else to go:
DECmate I / VT278 monitor & CPU
This is the VT100 monitor/housing with the 6120-PDP8-microproc-based
CPU board in one of the logic slots.
Sadly, missing the keyboard and floppies unit, so it's not complete.
Well, all I can say is that my experience differs. I have had newer capacitors
fail, and old ones, too, of course, but nothing points to wholesale replacement
as a cost or time effective strategy, especially on something like an Altair.
FWIW, I don't run my vintage machines all that often. Of
I'm doing another run of boards.

I appreciate that. I wasn't criticizing, just explaining a few reasons
why I prefer not to use an actual 8289 in my design.
