I have both a Scarlet and PC-8500.  So if it is indeed for them, I'd be interested too. From: Gary Weber To: "m...@bitchin100.com" Sent: ‎Saturday‎, ‎August‎ ‎26‎, ‎2017‎ ‎11‎:‎43‎:‎39‎ ‎PM‎ ‎EDTSubject: Re: [M100] NEC "PC-8434A utility disk" Are you

Re: [M100] Wifi obsolescence?

It's been a long time since I had to deal with wpa issues on Wi-Fi. Most devices and operating systems seem to have this sorted out by now. Technically, wpa2 only specifies a protocol and not the cipher. For the cipher, you can choose between aes and tkip, but you should always use aes as it's

Re: [M100] Utility disk image from sector access

No it wasn’t. It’s true that the Utility disk does need to have the write-protect tab set to work properly. But my copies of the disk didn’t start working properly until I figured out the sector IDs and how to write them to the copy of the disk. Kurt From: M100

Re: [M100] Wifi232 support issue

No one said he was "on the hook" to supply anything. He already supplied it, and, however possibly inadvertantly, picked certain of his customers to to receive notices about it, and others not to, who all paid the same money, without the justification of for example non payment or other bad

Re: [M100] Wifi232 support issue

The device updates itself, no Twitter account needed. Just type ATUPDATECHECK to see if there's a new update. I don't see any good coming of presuming that any hobbyist/enthusiast who designs something and makes it available to the community for essentially cost is on the hook for

I think there might already be one in the archives, but if not I'll make a dsk or jv1 or something of the M1 disk. On Aug 27, 2017 11:31 AM, "John R. Hogerhuis" wrote: > > On Sun, Aug 27, 2017 at 7:52 AM Brian White wrote: > >> I have a disk that says

Actually it sounds like he never engaged Rickard on political topics, but Rick penalized him for his political views anyway, in ways he pointedly never penalized Rickard. This discussion isn't about politics. It's about Rickard failing to be an adult. I think it was very useful knowledge to know

Re: [M100] Wifi232 support issue

It's not a gray area. No politics on this list means no politics on this list. I don't need to know what you think and you don't need to know what I think on political issues not directly related to vintage computers. It's not that hard to not get into that stuff. Even if it's related I don't

Re: [M100] "Remote Disk"

I have a disk that says remote disk for Model 1, and it talks about connecting to a Model 100. I don't know which side is the server and which the client, but I don't have the part that goes on the 100 (unless it is fed to the 100 from the 1 like tpdd). I don't have the manual for it, just some

[M100] Wifi obsolescence?

My experience with the WiFi232 (which I intend trying with my m100 and my Psion 3a now that I have a serial port installed on my PC (I need the serial port to put telnet software on the Psion)) has led me to look into connecting all my vintage machines via WiFi, partly for fun, and partly

[M100] Wifi232 support issue

Nope says 8434a. It may have come with a pc8441a crt / disk adapter. Or it could have be thrown in with some other nec stuff. -- John. On Sat, Aug 26, 2017 at 8:43 PM Gary Weber wrote: > Are you sure it doesn't say NEC PC-8431A Utility Disk? Guess I would > expect the
