There were other vendors and IBM got nasty about servicing the office typewriters that were beat to hell by using them as computer printers. The...

The structural foam was great stuff. I remember being shown around the place where ours were made. Our tour guide took a paper cup and filled it...

I'm not sure it is that simple. The k10u-rld disk does not have PUTSYS and PUTOVL, The k10hald* disks do not seem have MASMENU. There are other...

So I went through my stack of Five 6100's to make 2 complete systems. I already sold one, and am keeping the other for myself. I do have some left...

Back in the 80's I had a buddy get his amateur radio license. I was into computers, he radios. Had I known we could have communicated via radio or...

Reenignes answer seemed pretty clear to me. Another way to look at it is to compare the output from a composite signal and RGB signal. For all the...

Here are a few pictures from my setup (which, essentially, is a CompuPro ZPU setup). Works great. Just curious if you considered cooling at all....

It appears someone deleted my post because it had my phone number in it :face palm: I am interested in a series/1 for a long time, contact me.

TJ, You can use cpmtools (or cpmtools built with libdsk) to access the Files and get directory listings. $ TD02IMD K10U-RLD.TD0 > K10U-RLD.TXT...

And someone else similarly equipped to communicate with...

So you're 'D without the software package(s)?

Hmm.. actually it kinda looks like the eprom board would fit into one of the RAM slots. I wonder how it gets the -9V though..

Of course not, because of the high resolution and b/w anyway, which makes no sense having color burst enabled. But you say yourself that for all...

I did more digging and the only thing that is mentioned about the typewriter itself is that it was a Selectric II with a special typing element that...

The 40x25 text, 80x25 text and 320x200 graphics modes have two BIOS modes each, one with the color burst disable bit set and one with it cleared. The...

You have to remember that in the UK we didn't see quite as many of them as in the USA. I also came across an ad for an ADDT Regent terminal, which...

Now that I've got a real 1702a eprom board for my digital group machine as part of that kit of parts I bought, I'm wondering how hard it would be to...

Doug, It was not that bad, the past 1.5 weeks was a lot of wasted time :). ...but I learned some CP/M that made me aware enough to try l this...

The Tandon and Texas Peripherals (a joint Tandy/Tandon venture) drives that Tandy used in the Models I, III, and 4 (until the 4D) lacked a proper...

I have the 19.661 MHz crystal in mine. Faster baud rates work fine you just have to solder wire to IC pin. The M8650 can go faster than the M8655. ...

Jon, Many of those large plastic CRT and computer plastic cases were injection molded (USA spelling) with plastic that included a foaming agent to...

I'm unsure why just opening the drive door would help you much. I guess the felt pad is not pressed onto the top of the disk (or in the case of...

Quite right Chuck, I'd forgotten about the Intertube. It's mentioned in my Intertec Schematic Pack (on the SB I PSU diagram) but there are no...

A BIOS mode? It's not a different mode. The artifact colors work in any of the standard modes, even in 640x200x1 when toggeling the "color burst...

Aware or not, I suspect they didn't really anticipate people using it that way - otherwise they would have documented it and added a BIOS mode for...
