I need ONE of the persons interested in the 6300 stuff to step up and say that they will handle the duplicating/scanning, etc of the materials, and also the disbursal of the copies to the others. I do not need another project, and this is turning into one. I just want to get rid of this stuff and have it not go into a landfill. Once one of you has volunteered, we can arrange your getting the material from me, and I'll be on to the next thing. Thanks, Bill Dudley This email is free of malware because I run Linux.

I can handle floppies here.

Jason, thanks for the offer.
Let us try to arrange the scanning at the next workshop, or at VCF East.
Then, Douglas Crawford, Jonathan Gevaryahu, and Kyle Owen can all get copies of the 6300 stuff.
Who can image the floppies to digital files?

I have a nice Fujitsu sheet fed scanner I'd be happy to bring with me
to VCF, or if I can make it out to a workshop. It can do color, duplex scanning.

Jonathan,
I have no means to do the copying but am open to the idea.
Does anyone have the means to copy those annoying little 5" x 8" loose leaf pages, and to copy 5" diskettes?

8. AT&T 6300 Plus Service Manual and Hardware Reference Manual.
Two hard cover binders in slip cases, including several different diagnostic diskettes (5 1/4").
Any chances of getting scans of that manual and dumps of the diskettes? The existing olivetti M24 (the machine the 6300 is a rebadge of) documentation is incomplete, particularly for the z8000 (olivetti m20 backwards compatibility related stuff, which also handles the hi res
video
mode in m24/6300 mode) which is entirely missing from existing
schematics
online!
The diskettes could be very useful for testing machines as well.
