E&S things

First, a question.

I've got a pair of E&S digitizer tablets, twiddle boxes, and keyboards.
The tablets are supposedly RS-232 and use an 8pin minidin. Is that the
same type as Macs and Sun IPCs use? If not, does anyone know a pinout?
The twiddle boxes and keyboards use 'RJ45' 8-pin modular connectors. Does
anyone have the pinout for those, and know if they're just RS-232 or ...?
I have a single box that will take a few peripherals plugged into it (kb,
mouse, digitizer, twiddle box, other things I don't have), and connect to
the E&S PS/390 I'm guessing. Anyone have a pinout for the 'uplink'
connector on that? I think the connector is a DB25F, so it might just be
plain RS-232 (which is my hope).

Next:

I've got some stuff I got that I have no use for. First offer for $10 +
box + shipping gets each item. (Covers what I paid for them)

Item 1:

   E&S PS/390 'scope' monitor cables.
   9-track 10" magtape that is the VAX host software for interfacing with
   the PS-390s. A pair of 5.25" floppy disks that are copies of the
   software that runs on the PS-390s. If you're intersted, I can see what
   the label exactly reads

Item 2:

   Manual: PS 390 Advanced Programming (marked AP)
   Manual: PS 390 Reference Material (RM)
   Manual: PS 390 Graphics Tutorial (GT)
   Manual: PS 390 Introduction and Support (IS)
   Manual: PS 390 Tools and Techniques (TT)

All the manuals are in binders and are thick and heavy.

Thanks
