Thanks, I've bought another one from the same seller. I'll let you know if it
works when it comes in.

Just to let you all know,
I received an IMSI (Mouse Systems M4) mouse with mousepad, and that mousepad
works with the Ardent's mouse as well.

Yes, boot -s should have worked; also, once you have access to the passwd file
by mounting the disk on a different system, you could just edit the file to
remove the root password.

Here¹s a long shot, about as long as they get.

The SRM is an Intel 386 desktop machine, with a SYP301 motherboard and a

Hi Warren,
What would the requirements for the system be? How often would it need to
be online? I¹m working on getting an OS for it, but if I succeed I might
be able to get my Convex C1 up and running in a few weeks, and wouldn¹t it
be nice to have that participate?

Does anyone have an image of the BASIC interpreter paper tape for the DG Nova?
I’ve received a Logical Machine Corporation (Lomac) DAVID system, which appears
to be successor to the Lomac ADAM.
The system consists of the main box with an 8” floppy drive (labeled “DAVID
PROCESSOR”), a keyboard/monitor box (labeled “DAVID DISPLAY”), and a printer.

Nope, those tiny urls still refer to URLs that we can’t open. As was suggested
before, these URLs are probably specific to your browser session.

Not supported, sure, but it will probably work just fine. When we released

on those.

I’m looking for a piece of software called Omni-Ware for VMS or UNIX , by a
Nashua company called Logicraft.
I’ve just received the pieces to build a Logicraft PC (286 motherboard with
custom BIOS and a special network card that emulates the keyboard, mouse, CGA
