FS: Official MITS Altair S100 Extender
by Systems Glitch 11 Jan '16

11 Jan '16

Going through more S100 stuff: http://www.ebay.com/itm/272101989743 This one is like every other S100 extender, except made by MITS. It's one of the shorter ones, so you can leave it in and still put the top on the case. The connector is still very tight, from the edge connector it looks like this board was used very little (huh? no constant debugging with MITS stuff?!) Thanks, Jonathan

New museum furniture / special fundraiser
by Evan Koblentz 11 Jan '16

11 Jan '16

Everyone, In the new museum, we're going to need about $3,000 for exhibit furniture, more electrical power, converting the single door into a double-wide door, and all sorts of small things. Can you (or your company) please help? We set up newmuseum(a)vintagecomputerfederation.org. Funds into that account will only be used for building the new museum display. We already have $1,000 budgeted for this purpose. This list has 162 members. To get the remaining $2,000, that works out to about $13/person -- one nice lunch. Thank you!

List downtime / Domain transfer happening soon
by Evan Koblentz 10 Jan '16

10 Jan '16

Guys, We are transferring our domain(s) to a different hoster. This has to do with our technical merger regarding the VC Forum. (We decided it's simpler for the Federation stuff to move to Erik's hoster than for Erik to move the forum stuff to our hoster.) I am going to transfer our domains tomorrow at noon ET. After that, I'll transfer the subdomain that connects to this mailing list (we're NOT changing list companies again). It should go smoothly. There may be a little bit of downtime.

Cheapest way to buy nice stools?
by Evan Koblentz 10 Jan '16

10 Jan '16

We're considering putting a nice metal stool at each computer in the new museum. However, they seem to be pricey. Even very simple ones (like this: http://tinyurl.com/jhpp6ds) are $40 each, and I'd like to have 30 of them .... but that would be $1,200 which is way too much for us to spend on this. Harbor Freight has them for less than $30 each -- I have one at home and it's great -- but the tops are bright red. :) Not appropriate for our museum. Does anyone know where to get such things cheaper? (We're not looking to collect donations of mismatched stuff.)

TTL components in Philly?
by eric F 10 Jan '16

10 Jan '16

Any chance someone knows of a businesses that I’m not aware of in Philly that would stock TTL components like the 7430 8-input NAND? I have a SLOW order coming with one, but feel impatient, especially with time to burn and projects lined up in the retro pipeline. Eric
