Clearing out newsletters

Thu Apr 5, 2012 8:57 PM

during a few trips last year in picking up a bunch of craigslist hauls, i inherited a bunch of newsletters from atari groups all across the country. I have about 9 boxes of this stuff dating from around 82 through 98 i believe. I currently do not have the room to store this stuff. As of now, its all sitting in my back patio under my slot car table collecting dust. I came pretty close to trashing this stuff but everytime i wanted to, i didnt have the heart. I finally came up with the idea to buy a domain and host a simple site out of my house with my server. I plan on scanning all the documents and placing them there for anyone who wants to view them.

what i would like to know is if anyone is actually interested in the hard copies before i trash them. Ill be more than happy to ship a couple of newsletters to a whole case if need be, all i ask is to pay for the shipping.

In addition to the newsletters, i also have another 5 boxes of binders filled with schematics, user manuals and personal notes on modding stuff. (I'm talking about the really thick binders) Again, if anyone wants to give them a good home, pay for the shipping.

I'm currently out of town at the moment, but come monday i plan on doing some heavy scanning.

Anyways, pm if your interested. I apologize if i didnt get back to a couple of other people before in the past, but having to deal with 20 to 25 days of traveling a month with the army then processing out of there and going back and forth and fighting them for my disability compensation and such, i just lost track.

Thanks

saw these on evilbay and was just actually thinking about using them as some type of display on my desk. I read the description for them but was wondering what if anything can they still be used for?

sio "y" cable

Sun Feb 26, 2012 7:56 PM

is it possible to make? I thought it would easy enough to hack 2 cables. one half of a cable was used for my apelink. so i thought i could just slice another cable and solder the other half into it. Needless to say, it didnt work. I hooked one end up to the computer, the other end to a disk drive and the other end to an 850. The first drive worked, anything coming out the 850 didnt.
