	I am interested in trading my USR Courier HST dual standard modem.
It has v.32bis and ASL, and is external.  What I am looking for is an
external v.32bis fax/voicemail modem, but I will consider settling for a
external v.32 modem plus cash or something inbetween. If the modem has
fax/voicemail, software for the Amiga is a BIG plus.

They might be "harmless looking" but they aren't even similar to a "phone
jack". Are you thinking of another machine?

Of course, buy a 386 or 486 "if you have the cash". If you can afford the
difference, buy a Caddy instead of a Ford. For $295, they are still a best
buy.

Date: Thu, 24 Dec 1992 07:45:39 GMT


I have a couple of genuine Sun SS1 (4/60) motherboards for sale. 

Some features:

	14-15 mips (4.1.1 and bundled compiler)
	1.5-2 mflops (depending on who/how you ask)
	3 S-bus slots
	Room for 16 simms, up to 64 megs on MB, more with card...
	On board scsi, 2 serial ports, floppy and audio in/out interfaces
	On board AUI (15 pin) ethernet connector

Pizza-box form factor: drops right into a 3/80 chassis, connects right 
up to 3/80 power supply (3/80,4/60 PS's are identical). Can use 3/80 
simms and floppy drive, but you will need a new frame buffer and will have 
to live without plastic trim panel that clips onto the back of your machine, 
trivial. Putting one of these in one of Sun's older VME machines, such as 
a 3/50 or 3/60, would by contrast be quite silly. 

If you have an old Sun 3 with a big drive, you might consider 
loading the Sun 4c architecture release onto your hard drive, booting 
the SS1 motherboard as a diskless client and then starting OpenWindows 
or X, and essentially using your Sun 3 as an X terminal window onto this 
board.

I am asking $700 US plus shipping for these. Reasonable offers considered. 

Original Sun 4c 4.1.1 boot tapes included as long as they last.

I have/can get some system parts:

Sun 4 keyboard with cable, brand new: $70
Sun 4 mouse and pad: $60 (Sorry, only 1)
Analog mono board, gives mono image on greyscale or color monitor; $250
CG3 color card: $375
Third-party single-slot GX accel'd color: $900
Digtal (ECL) mono board, for old Sun 19" montiors: $350
1 meg simms: $25 each
Sun 16" greyscale monitor: $325
Opus clone 16" greyscale: $275
Sun/Sony 16" color monitor: $800

Sun sells 4/60 power supplies for $180 via SunExpress.

Also, he endorsed my check with a signature and his social security number.

Help!  I've been charged with tracking down info about a particular type of
computer monitor.  Specifically, the monitor is approximately 1" in diameter
and fits on a head band positioned such that the monitor sits in front of one
eye.  When in use the monitor "projects" an image out in front of the viewer
(or at least it appears so to the viewer).

I remember seeing a blurb about these in the "new products" section of Byte two
or three years ago.  If anyone out there knows anything about this, please send
me info.  I will summarize for anyone interested.

Thanks,

-Lance

I would like to sell assorted PC software.  

Can anyone tell me the recommended and accepted procedure and etiquette for
exchanging money and software package to reduce the risk to buyer and
seller?  Specifically, as a seller should I ship before or after I receive
payment?  What about shipping costs?

thanks in advance, 
anne

i have a hewlett packard video graphics color display but i no longer have
the manuals to figure out how many ??.mm per dot or what is the highest
resolution that this monitor can handle.  i read somewhere that you can
damage the monitor if you force it into a resolution that it cannot
handle.  since i have a 256k vga card now, the highest resolution that i
can get is 640x400x256.  if i force it to something higher, i get a blank
or one color screen.  

my question is there a way for me to figure out how much resolution this
monitor can handle?  is there a program to do that?  instead of taking the
risk of trashing my monitor by forcing it into 1024x735x256 when i buy a
new 1mb vga card.  oh, and what's the deal with those .24mm dot or .31mm
dot mean anyway?

thanks for you help
