Well, after taking the Pro350 apart (at least, as apart as it can be taken with all the rivets :( ), I found a couple of things. First, this thing has no HD controller (bummer :( ), so does anyone know where I can find one of those? Also, I found the following boards : 000034 PC350 Memory (256K) 001002 CT100 Video Generator 002004 RX50 Controller Board Why is there a video board, & yet it doesn't seem to connect to the I/F on the back of the case (where the terminal connects to)? It has a seperate ribbon connector - for what kind of cable/device? Is there a list of cards that can be put in the PC3x0 machines somewhere? Also, on the subject of the FAQ, the phone number for DEC is no longer in service. The new number is 1-508-841-3564. And I talked to a guy at Venturcom who was basically a salesperson, & of course he said "we don't support that processor anymore." I asked him to check if they still had any copies of Venix, & he said he'd check & get back to me. Does anyone have a copy that they're willing to get rid of? From what the FAQ says, I need a copy of Venix to run Un*x since the 350 apparently won't work with Berkeley's Un*x. Anyhow, any pointers would be appreciated. :) Later, <Mowgli> -- Address: mowgli@magnus.acs.ohio-state.edu (Mowgli Assor in quasi-real life) "Too many lonely hearts in the real world.
