Item 58: Multi-I/O cards

Entered by robh on Mon Jul 8 21:34:55 1996:

  These computer cards were donated to Grex by Dominant Systems
of Ann Arbor.  I haven't tested any of them, and don't know
whether they work or not.
 
  Minimum bid $2 per card...buy a couple to increase the odds of
getting one that works!  You can pick them up at my place (SE
Ann Arbor) or at a board meeting, but if you need them shipped,
add an extra $4 per order when you send a check.
 
    Three (3) multi-I/O cards (2S/1G/1P), but only one has the
    set of cables with the extra ports

14 responses total.

To avoid the maintenance nightmare of the computer book item,
we're putting each type of card in a different item.

Hu?  2 serial, 1 parallel, and what's the G for?


#3 of 14 by ajax on Tue Jul 9 18:08:53 1996:

G is for game port, for joysticks or paddles or whatever.

Does it say how many?

$2.50


#6 of 14 by janc on Wed Jul 10 16:01:53 1996:

There are three cards, so the three high bids win.


#7 of 14 by popcorn on Mon Jul 15 13:27:45 1996:

One day until janc and scott's bids become final.  There's one card with no
bids on it yet.


#8 of 14 by popcorn on Tue Jul 16 22:41:39 1996:

One card is sold to janc for $2.  The next card goes to Scott at 8:15 this
evening for $2.50 unless a flurry of people bid it away from him.  One more
card has no bids yet....

Just a reminder that janc and scott have each secured one
board, and one more is still available.

$1 for the alst one.


#11 of 14 by tsty on Thu Aug 1 22:47:53 1996:

oh, just read #0 .. for $2 i'd like to know, first, what chip is
on these/this card? question/answer before bid ...


#12 of 14 by ajax on Fri Aug 2 06:00:19 1996:

I think the serial UART chips are mostly 86C450s.  I didn't see
any high-speed 16550s, if that's what you're looking for.


#13 of 14 by robh on Tue Aug 6 23:47:04 1996:

The current bid for the final car is $1 from tsty, made five
days ago.

Only nine days later...  >8)  The final card is sold to tsty
for $2.  Congratulations!
