Zerox System 60

2020-12-31 Thread Adrian Graham via cctalk
Hello folks, I’ll get the ‘happy new year’ in now because later on I’ll probably be in bed :) Does anyone remember the Zerox System 60? There’s an ebay listing for one and a friend of mine says the PC shop he worked for back in the 90s had a bunch of them but no info could be found then or now.

I see P&P labels and I remember driving past P&P in Haslington many times in the past, and even visiting once or twice for odd bits and pieces. Odd such places are now long gone. Dave > -Original Message- > From: cctalk On Behalf Of Adrian Graham > via cctalk > Sent: 31 December 2020 11

Well, after waiting almost a month for the USPS to deliver a "Priority Mail 1 day" package from Dave I now have the MFM reader card. So I started working on these disks I rescued. First up was a ST506 (labelled "RD50" by DEC) and a pair of ST412's. Bad news: No drives spun up Good news: You ca

DEC part number system

2020-12-31 Thread Noel Chiappa via cctalk
So, DEC part numbers (xx-y-zz) have a system where the 'xx' says what _kind_ of part it is; e.g. bootstrap PROMs are all 23-x-yy. I seem to recall reading at some point something which listed all the xx- codes, and what they meant - but now I can't find it. A Web search didn't turn it up, a

Hi, I modified vtserver to work on pdp11/34 and similar - the older machines that have the 00 00 00 00 @ odt prompt. I'm afraid I didn't do a very thorough job (hack night and just wanted to get it working) and in retrospect I wish I would've made a conditional argument to put

It seems easier to bash Google than it is to debug the actual problems. I work at Google; not on Gmail but on things that many of you use daily. I don't believe my colleagues are trying to build market share by annoying specific users and dropping their mail. There are a lot of factors that need

Disclaimer: I don't speak for Google ... The thread shows a lot of Google bashing. Insinuating that Google makes it difficult so that people follow the path of least resistance is part of that. For years I had a non-Google backed email system and I did not have problems with sending or receiving
