You have to buy the item. There's no way to contact the seller until you purchase it. You need to add your address (within Brazil) to even purchase the item, so people outside of the USA can't purchase things from the site. You can specify to pick it up at the seller's address as well. I tried to …

There's a vintage computer item I want from on an online marketplace in Brazil, but there's no way to contact the seller, nor is there a way to ship to the USA. Anyone live there, or near there that could offer assistance? 😎

Re: How about a MR-BIOS ROM file repository?

Exactly. Every FTP site I found, nothing except either these or a text file about a BIOS for a 386/486 board, but no actual BIOS files. Looks like the repository will definitely have to come from the community pulling their BIOS files. I don't have any, that I know of, on my boards.

Definitely a comfort-list I'd love to have. Every single FTP site I've backed up I've looked to see if there was some golden-gem rare Mr BIOS directory, but none yet. Closest things I've come to were these, and I bet you all probably have all of them on these FTP sites: ftp://ftp.mpoli.fi/unpacked/ …

Figuring out if its some stupid undocumented PIN or software switch, or if its just malfunctioning. I have a Solo 9100 laptop, and its SUPPOSE to have both adlib and soundblaster compatibility, but I can ONLY get adlib to work.

Is a NEC 22" Multisync FP2141SB considered retro? I'm hoping to pick it up for $20 (boom baby!) tomorrow and it'll replace my 20" HP CRT that will take a fortune to repair.

Two 3DFX cards that have bent pins on the chips. Probably easy to fix for someone here, so I haven't junked them.

old Amigas (as opposed to new Amigas I guess.) That's were I am at the moment. Nearly completed the Dos/Win computer collection. And C64 as well... C64's are not that expensive. Amiga's however.... Amiga computers are extremely expensive. They are like in the league of GUS or V5-6000 cards and soon …

PCI = Abundant VLB = Rare (maybe even more rare than ISA? Not sure) ISA = Rare, but usually listed on ebay every few months

He will email me regarding the Chip Chat MCA sound cards though, as I expressed specific interest in those if he had any really old stock. If i keep a dialogue open, he might be persuaded to release a portion of the OPL4s. If that's the case, I'll forward or give a heads up to Dreamblaster. He had …

He said it was a mistake to have them listed in the first place, they were going back into their internal stock on-hand. They make ISA cards for a variety of industrial applications, and said the OPL4s were going into some designs and were not to be sold as surplus stock. Not sure what uses …
