There are some old ads and some posts here and there (one from an ex-Hayes employee who confessed that he, too, wasn't sure what it did or was supposed to do), but I've found nothing from anyone who's used one to _do_ anything. So now we get to piece it together. Computer archeology is fun. j

I'll keep it in mind, but I really ought to just do it over here and do a better job of it. I'll get to it. In the meantime, here is the Macintosh software that came with it. I learned a bit about Mac disk formats when trying to image this one on a KryoFlux. It came on a 400K disk, which is MFS, and Ciderpress won't load it that filesystem, making me think it was a bad read. Finally stuck it in MiniVMac and up it came. I transferred the files to an 800K HFS disk image for convenience. Both are posted here: http://nocarrier.net/archive/floppy_images/Hayes It's a bootable disk with Finder 4.1, which I've never seen before. Again, if anyone knows where the PC version of the software is, I'd love to have it. -j

I've scanned the manual and quick-ref card. The scan is not up to the quality of my usual work, as I tried a new technique using a DSLR instead of a scanner so I wouldn't have to take the manual apart. The results are good enough to read, but that's about it. I'll re-do it again someday with the proper tools. Here's the link: Jason, you can send it my direction for scanning if you like.

In your Hayes explorations have you come across any technical documentation for the Hayes Micromodem-100, the successor to the 80-103A? All that I've been able to uncover is a marketing brochure. Would like to uncover more ... Thank you, paul
