I spent some time today and made a video of my MP 3000 system booting up
to z/OS. The video is here: http://youtu.be/WnJmeQR0GQU.
Even though the video is about 9-1/2 minutes long, it takes longer than
that to boot. I edited out some of the more boring bits. ;-)

Hi
Out of curiousity, since I now have a DEC PRO380. Was there any third

Not that it's a help, but I have a Wang calculator that uses an array of

I've been given a small board that I believe is a Corvus Omninet adapter
for TRS-80 Mod 3 or 4. I _think_ it's intended to support a product
called "Network 4" that appears on a few old Tandy price lists and ad
brochures.
I'd love to find out more about the environment it's intended for and,

While we are talking about typesetters, I have one that I am willing to
part with if someone can pick it up from Long Island, NY.
It is a Tegra Genesis Laser Phototypesetter, circa 1990.
Original cost at the time was north of $40K. It did 1000DPI pagess at 20
ppm. The print engine is a Varityper
