Well. I also tried to find Macase address in Taipei, Taiwan, using Google Maps without succeed. It seems that the firm Macase has deprecated those designs.

Could you ellaborate a bit what you are looking for? Knowing the purpose it might be way easier to help.
In general I have collected a lot of info on TCI cases, so I sent you a PM.

PC Hoarder did a great job pulling out what I think is possible to find.
The archive.org site that is relevant is macase.com. Here is an example https://web.archive.org/web/19970228205053/ht … nal/diamond.htm
Different dates give access to different parts of the site - som version have images, some don't.

I have given up finding the original company contact for Macase. For the TCI part I have spoken to a few former employees,
some of them are really enthusiastic about it's history. Most of the coffee talks I've had have been summarised into the Norwegian Wikipedia page: https://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCI_Computer_AS

I have spent way too much time with the KS-330 case. My findings and measurements are partly documented here: https://github.com/retro-city/ks-330-mini

Radix, I know about your Github in advance but this do not having original sheets. I may travel to Shanghai , to visiting world biggest technology complex, and Taiwan to investigate Macase firm then contact personally. When did Trident Computer registered at Brønnøysundregistret.no? I see in Wiki that this dissolved roughly one year after I return sick from a study in Washington, D.C., in this U.S.A. I wish to recover production domestically with my acquire Norsk Data, and Tandberg, into such mainframe and minimum this MACASE cabinets instead laptop, tablets, and card-format without cooler, but I know that I will not be rich but stood at multiply legs to stand on which is well known for me according to "green receipt" due life change way to become healthier.

I tried to enter "www.macase.com" then I got a return site that is written:
"Forbidden

The factory company should must having reasons, otherwise they would not block me away. I would not block the users of internet but there is reasons why I do not wish to ship packages outside Norway. Police Surveillance Service (PST) should having all metadata that business trade with outside countries. But, I have give them many, many chances to repent bulgary at my apartment that I ended up to selling include parking space.

The macase.com URL hasn't been active for a number of years, leading to the error message you quote. Seems at some point, possibly in the early 2000s, they may have shifted to using macase.hk though even that URL now seems to be unused (last crawled by the Internet Archive in late 2024).

The middle Ch3 can become used as capacitor and the vector of 3(CH3) be used as counter.
