Does that ISA card have any external ports? How about internal connectors? If all it has is internal connectors, I'd wager that it's some sort of audio processing card and the TI c…

See, I work for a school.
If they were anywhere near Seattle, I would pick 'em up and distribute them on the MLA. Let me know if you see anything like this in Seattle.

I wonder if any of them are Mach V's?

I should be getting 2 of those and a powerbook 145b from the friend that gave me my powerbook 150. I can't wait!

During a previous career in broadcast television back in the early 1990s, I sat in on an Avid demonstration, and I recall our station's chief engineer inquiring about the price, be…

Shall I break out the 1995/1996 issues of MacWorld and start price checking?

Bunsen - those little ridges on the bottom right hand corner slide to the right. You will probably have to apply more force than you like. Press inward and out to the right with yo…

Couldn't you theoretically find a wall wart with the right voltage, hack some metal pads, and stuff the pads onto the contacts of the PB100? Probably screw some serious stuff up if…

Re: battery - will do. I'm thinking an SMD NiMH charger IC and a home made AAA NiMH pack. That or finding the smallest lead acid I can.
BTW first hurdle - how do you get the bat…

Yeah, they're neat little beasties. I prefer the keyboard on these to the Duos. I personally have three or four of the 100s, but only one works. Two have some random problem that I…

PB100s are very cool - lighter, smaller, and just a little more removed from the present day than all other PB1xx series - very collectible IMHO. And there's gotta be a way to hack…

Yes. But don't rain on his parade yet. Bunsen is savvy enough to know the star-crossed joys of extreme archaism, and with the 100s specifically, as opposed to the rest of the 100…

Well, assuming they got them around 10-12 years ago, each system would have been literally tens of thousands (US$) with all the Avid stuff...multiply that out and include all the s…

How much must all that have cost new I wonder...stuff like that reminds you just how depressing the depreciation of computer equipment is! :'( The Macs alone would surely have co…

Yeah, you could start your own filmmaking school with these...heck, ten years ago when I started at CalArts, we only had two machines that we're setup with Avid hardware.

Yea, I would not mind one of those systems.
So when nobody goes for it (they must be looking for a huge tax write off since the gear is worth little these days), what will they do…

Don't those have lead acid batteries?

I'd form a 501©3 corporation just to get those if I could pick them up.

Ooooo.... Good Luck! I've always wanted one of those...
