- Hi. A few years back a friend of mine (who was a top HP salesman here
- in Canberra) showed me a machine he'd brought home for the weekend. It
- looked a lot (like very similar to) a portable sewing machine. It had
- much the same sorta shape/styling etc as the IBM PS/2 model 75, ran
- some version of unix and had an amber screen builtin.
-
- What I'd like to know is,
- 1) What is the name/model number of this machine?
- 2) What version of the one true OS did it run?
- 3) When were they made?
- and 4) if there's anyone in Oz who has one would they consider
- letting me have it?
-
- I'm finishing my second year of a Maths/Physics degree @ANU and will
- be transferring to Brisbane next year. I don't have a machine to work
- with, and I figure that this machine would be very interesting to use
- and maintain, to say the least.
-
- Thanks in advance,
-
- CJ Canon.
