HP2000 fans... alert!

[Jay West]

I have come across a stash of 12920/12921/12922 mux card sets. These are the 
cards that are required to run pretty much any version of HP's Time Shared 
BASIC.

I know some of you are working on getting up the dual CPU versions of 
HP2000/TSB, but a lot of people here have just one CPU. These people could 
get HP2000/E up and running - that version works on just one cpu, and no 
special microcode is needed.

I know that the 12920/21/22 mux sets are pretty difficult to find, and as I 
said, they are required. If you ever want to get TSB up and running you 
should get in on this deal. Most everything else needed to put together a 
TSB system is still fairly available, except these mux sets which are quite 
rare.

The guy who has them will want real money for them. I suspect he will want 
somewhere in the ballpark of $100+ bucks per set (it's a 3 card set). I'm 
going to buy a set to use for a 2nd TSB machine, plus another set for a 
spare. These cards probably wont be easily found again as they've all but 
disappeared (to my knowledge). I don't believe his mux sets includes the 
distribution panels, but the pinouts to build your own cables are well 
known.

If anyone is interested, please let me know off-list immediately as I'm 
getting an order ready to snag them.
