Subject:  THINK TANK
From:     BOB FULLER

        Has anyone had any success using Think Tank in the Rainbow
with or without Code Blue.  If so, what version have you used and how
well does it behave?

        I'd appreciate any help on this as I'd like to use Think
Tank or a similar idea handler on my rainbow with Think tank files from
a Model 100.

  I've got a 100+ forsale.

  it has 896K,
    Graphics option
    10 Meg HD & Controller
    Floor stand

  Running msdos 3.1
  This unit has less than 400 cume power-on hours under it's belt,
I got it from a gent who had purchased it through the U, but discovered
his wife needed to use software for a mac, so this puppy went
into the closet.  Asking $300 for it.

  Also selling a la-50 with less than 100 pages put through it, asking
$150

  Will entertain reasonable offers on either.  the + is in a floor
stand, by the way...

e-mail me at glacier peak or call 562-1749, (# good till the 30th,
after that I'll post a  new # when we move)

Subject:  NBS PASCAL COMPILER
From:     PAUL ROBINSON

I have obtained the sources to the National Bureau of Standards NBS
 Pascal Compiler.  I originally downloaded it from (213) 837-0892.  The
 default account number is 1000 and the default password is
 moving_target and you can get access to it there.
 .
 The NBS Pascal compiler is a set of sources for a Pascal Compiler for
 the PDP-11, the compiler is written as two passes, in Pascal except for
 the Run Time Library which is in Macro-11.  The above number has
 sources, object, and binaries.
 .
 You can also download it in a ZIP format archive from (202) 966-3647 or
 in a ZOO format archive from (301) 622-2247.  The two files are "NBS"
 and "NBSUPD" with either a ZIP or ZOO extension.  The ZIP archives are
 300 and 275K; the ZOO archives are 354 and 410K.  These archives
 contain only Pascal and Macro-11 Sources for the compiler, with some
 documentation.  It may or may not be of use to you.
 .
 If it's too expensive or you can't download them, you can obtain copies
 on IBM or Rainbow format disks, from me at cost, as follows:
 .
 FOR ZIP FORMAT ARCHIVES ONLY:                    US DOLS
   one  3 1/2" 720K disk [IBM PCs or compatibles]      $2
   two  3 1/2" 360K disk [Tandy I suppose]             $3
   two  5 1/4" 360K disk [IBM PCs or compatibles]      $2
   four 5 1/4" 160K disk [Rainbow or old IBM] *        $3
 .
 FOR ZOO FORMAT ARCHIVES:
   Two    3 1/2" 720K disks                            $3
   Three  3 1/2" 360K disks **                         $4
   Three  5 1/4" 360K disks **                         $3
   Five   5 1/4" 160K disks ***                        $4

 This is an edited version of the document README.NBS which will be a
separate file explaining the archives, is only 5K and may give
you some information about whether you want to download the files first.
