Sort of. The machine will POST and you can use, for example, the standalone 
formatter. But UNIX gets confused and the kernel crashes due to missing 
instructions (WE32000 vs. the /310's WE32100).

I should make clear, somebody did send me images of the correct ROMs, so the 
/300 is currently totally operational. But I thought it would be nice to 
install an actual set of ROMs rather than the copies.

Will 310 ROMs work in a 300? I believe 310, 400, 600, and 1000 ROMs are
posted in Seth's emulator project's git hub. If not, I can resend them.

I don't know the etiquette but if you had the auction saved you might be able 
to ask the seller a question and see if theyd be opposed to putting you in 
contact with rhe buyer.

recent ebay lot of assorted ICs - did somebody on the list win this?

[r.stricklin via cctalk]

Folks;

I keep meaning to ask... a couple months ago, there was an eBay auction for a 
fairly large assortment of miscellaneous ICs. IIRC there were a couple of 
NS32016s, along with some other interesting spares. I was one of the interested 
bidders, but did not win.

In the lot were a small number of ROM chips with silkscreens like AATKJ, AATKL, 
AARAM, etc. These are AT 3B2 ROMs; the AATKx ones in particular are the 
original 3B2/300 ROMs that are missing from my machine. If somebody from the 
list won this lot and doesn't know what to do with these ROM chips... I'd love 
to hear from you.

Thanks!


ok
bear.
