Dang me!!! I finally have a few things to share for rescues, even if they
don't seem *spectacular* to everyone else...
I just picked up a Commie 128 (seems to be in good shape), a grungy 64, 3
drives (two Commie 1541's and a Swan clone 1571), a monitor, a partner 128
(what the heck is that??? I'm usually a Tandy person) a Commie serial to
Centronics parallel port adapter (that's cool... I can hook that to my
Epson LQ-500) and *lots* of disks, including the original CPM 3.0 boot
disk. I've not had a chance to check the stuff out, but at least it's home
safe...
Also, just got a call today from a guy (looking for a job...) just moved
from Salt Lake, and is quite the Atarian... but happens to have a NeXT Cube
or two that he'd be willing to let loose. Seems he's got 3, maybe only 2
work fully, but only wants 1 to use... so I'm first in line to get the
difference. As he put it, his stuff is being shipped "on the equivalent to
being tied to a cat's tail" from Utah, so it won't arrive for a few weeks
yet... but when it does and he gets settled in, he's going to let me know.
Whoohoo!!! ;-)
Yea, it still pales to most stories around here, but dangit... it's my
story, and I'm stickin' to it!!! ;^>
See y'all 'round,
Roger "Merch" Merchberger

Recycling is good, right??? Ok, so I'll recycle an old .sig.
If at first you don't succeed, nuclear warhead
disarmament should *not* be your first career choice.
