There was some movie magic, so no running version of promis. I did the
screen design myself for the TVI 950 based on pictures of screens running
the software that Christian and Zach provided.
They came last year and did a day of filming after a couple days of setting
up the set at my place.
My museum is in the credits, so it was probably me...

We've got a standby list of about 10 people so far. Did you fill in the

It splits the input 3 phase 120/208 30A input to separate 120V circuits.
3*30A 120V circuits if you want. Mine used about 3KVA, so it'll actually
(just barely) run off of a single 30A/120V or multiple 15/20A 120V circuits
if you rewire the input a bit.

If you have a model number and/or pictures, we could probably figure out a
modern replacement. The biggest things to try to match would be size, CFM,
voltage, and the number of wires (for any PWM control and RPM sensor).

I've finally have cleaned up sources and wrote up some documentation for my

need help, or could help me source a working TS-806 to compare this against.

I've been adding a few more blog posts, and put up the first one on what
(to me) makes TeleVideo actually interesting - their MmmOST client/server
operating system. I hope to get more up soon, but I have a (somewhat
lengthy) introduction based on what I've been able to learn about MmmOST:
The 703 area code appears to be in Virginia near DC, so that might be a
good guess at his location.

Since I'm going to be out in Seattle for a week to participate in VCF/PNW,
I was wondering if anyone in the area could lend me a hand with help
reading in an old QIC-24 25MB tape cartridge or two?
One has the TurboDOS backup/install media for a Televideo TS-816 that I got

I'm wondering if anyone knows of any CP/M software using GSX-80, which
could be an interesting demo, or game. I have found Kasekastchen (

I have the next one up, after fighting a bit with Blogger.
It details my efforts to resurrect a TS-1605 IBM compatible system that I
got off ebay (and probably spent too much money on).

For anyone interested, I've restarted my blog on things I've been doing
with TeleVideo systems, and have the first two parts (out of maybe a dozen
or so planned) up.

It looks like a memory module out of an IBM 3174 Establishment Controller.

I'm wondering if anyone knows where to find a copy of some software to
make an IBM 3270 Emulation Adapter (the short ISA one) useful. I hear
that IBM's PCOMM/3270 2.0 - 4.0 or so will work (on DOS) with the
card.

I saw a copy of this pop up on ebay, and was wondering if anyone had a
copy / more information about it? It seems to be another networking OS
for CP/M systems like Televideo's TS-806 & 816.
Thanks,

$7-10 to sort out and carefully handle (vs usual strip for gold recovery),
seems pretty reasonable to me. I'd expect the cost has more to do with
labor than gold being recovered.

I'd guess that it was mostly for DECserver 500/550s to boot off of a
VAX/VMS host.
So... yes, a MOP server running

Have you checked the PSU output?
After VCFMW this year, I've been looking at old projects I have and
was wondering if anyone has any leads on TeleVideo systems.
I'm looking for TS-800 terminals/systems, and interested in probably
any 1980s Televideo terminals, depending on price, especially the 950,
and 965s... and keyboards for
