I have a cable with two heads on one end and a rj45 phone connector on the
other end. On the two-headed side is a 25-pin ( serial female RS232 ?) and
9-pin (serial female RS232 ?)
The 25 pin adapter has a GEM95 sticker on it.
What was this cable used for?

Without doing the research before asking, there was the UCSD p-System
Pascal for IBM PC which came out very early in the history of the IBM PC.
It was not very popular. The SAGE II that had native Pascal (68000) was
not a popular machine. Waterloo Pascal on the SuperPetPascal never
really

As it is now, running z80 production must no longer be profitable for
Zilog, but some other manufacturer can license z80 production. Right? If
there is a demand someone will produce them

Do you have a vic20 to try it there first? Maybe it's looking for a

I have had better luck with a P-III motherboard that connects to the 34-50

An XML DTD for computer inventory might be an interesting and useful tool
to attempt for injecting and querying parts from a database. The actual

Anyone have the 2716 ePROM listing for IMSAI Basic. Version 1.4 or
whatever. I once had it, can't find my copy. If not 2716, I'll take any
listing that I can convert somehow.
Thanks

I probably have one here in Landenberg which is on the PA side of the MD/PA
border if you can find no other sources. Not in front of me to verify, but
I think I have three plastic bins of them along with related parts.

Guys...I just wanted to know if anyone has either an original user/tech

password reset util disk image floating around specific to the original PCs
Limited system, or a backdoor password ...that's what I am after...the

Maybe I an state this here without getting a lot of flack apart feom of
the youruber fan boys elsewhere... Sh...but a lot of the youtubers who
claim to be experts in vintage computing history or repairs are really just
experts in Google and Wiki searching, with good speaking skills.
Just
I am getting an error message when I boot up a recently donated PCs Limited
XT clone. The error is
ARC Turbo Board
X Turbo System Error # 04
Does anyone have one of these boards, I believe the error means the board
has been removed, and the system can't find it/bad board. If so, please
advise

There were a articles in the more technical journal-type mags 1981/82 that
discussed porting IBM DOS to non IBM 8088 systems that go into the
mechanics of it. DOS v 1.25 was the OEM version for the early ports.
*indirectly* from these you might find references to IBM BIOS porting and
who did it,
