Sadly that's also one of the main reasons you don't get these as easily. In my 20 something years of fiddling with computers, this was the first one I saw, used and bought. Sadly I forgot about taking a photo of the Riva 128ZX that I also got the other day...

Well some fellow Vogoners told me that I should make a new post when new stuff arrived... So here it is. The Intergraph TD-220. Funny story time: I had previously arranged with the seller to go to his town to pick it up (20km away) but instead I gave him an extra €5 and a google maps pointer and he …

Not really, those words are easily remembered... what I meant was that It's already being kept for me to buy, so not for sale anymore, but not sold yet...

I have "secured" (I really don't know the English word for it, in my home language is "apalavrei") a apparently non-working PPro brand machine with filled RAM Slots (EDO), a SB CT2980, Matrox VGA, should have SCSI too and a couple more expansion cards... for €10. I'm hoping the disk is a 50-pin SCSI …

So, after I posted on the "Bought these vintage hardware today" thread, some people asked for pics, so instead of just adding pics, I'ma gonna start a new thread. So, I got this deal for a IntelliStation M Pro for 70€ but the guy renegotiated cause S&H would be killer, to 65 and he included a 4 Disk …

Hi. Got this card, but I have no idea on what it is apart that it is a graphics card. Links: http://doimeabarri.ga/imgs/20170728_185858-l02mWBJqVS.jpg http://doimeabarri.ga/imgs/20170728_185849-ZAnKqDugHu.jpg Other than that, it has a 9 pin DSUB port so I reckon it must be EGA or Hercules or …

Thanks for the links. Sadly I don't have any other boards that are worth scavenging. According to this: http://ps-2.kev009.com/eprmhtml/eprm/f281.htm, U38 Cache Memory Tag Socket (128KB/256KB) is a socket equal to the cache ones, but it's marked as Tag Socket? I have no idea on what to put there.... …

Found the service manual for my machine here: http://ps-2.kev009.com/pccbbs/aptiva/63g2028.pdf . The board is a 2133A (not a normal 2133). Now it seems I need to find some cache chips for it. According to the service manual they should be: "If you are installing cache memory in a board with no cache …
