priced Digitalker ICs online and purchased them. As one arrived, I
found that my original IC was actually OK, but the cable from the

Has anyone noticed a difference in DVI overflow behavior on the PDP-8/I EAE
versus the PDP-8/E EAE? The 8/E EAE claims to be 8/I compatible in Mode A,
and I think I agree, for the most part. At least, it's compatible for the
parts that matter.
When a DVI instruction results in overflow, the EAE im

That is a nice, albeit somewhat slow, Alpha system. I have one but need a
replacement power supply - anyone have one or pointers to one? THanks!

I've got rights to a fairly nice system located in St. Louis. It has
working streaming tapes as well as half inch, all working.
It is on till this coming weekend.
The full system is a single bay, I've been told is 7' tall on casters.
