I've got two of these, one in case the other breaks (hah! yeah, right). Excellent printers. As Dave said, you can still get ribbons for most of these things. I bought two 6-pack boxes of Nu-Kote ribbons for my old TTX daisy wheel printer a year or so ago, probably a lifetime supply unless I start running some sort of business form on them. Along those lines, I'm still running an old HP LaserJet 4 as my main printer here, I've tried to replace it 3 or 4 times, and all of its would-be replacements have died. I finally had Ian go through it, apparently all of the roller assemblies and everything are not only available, but pretty cheap!

I bought 100 new MMJ connectors

Surprisingly, a bunch of telecom providers still have these in stock. Until recently, Vnetek (the folks that, eventually, ended up with DEC's small networks stuff) still carried the 100-pack under the original DEC part number. I threw some in on the last order from Vnetek, apparently that was the last of their MMJ connectors.

If no one else wants it, then I will take it! I’m sure there is support for it for Commodore 64 ;) At the very least GEOS should support.

I have some things that need adoption, starting with a lovely Panasonic KX-P1124

24 pin dot matrix printer. Come on, upgrade from that 9 pin printer already!
