Message-ID: <4351@lib.tmc.edu> Date: 24 Nov 90 01:56:57 GMT Sender: usenet@lib.tmc.edu Organization: University of Texas Medical School at Houston Lines: 12 Nntp-Posting-Host: thesis1.hsch.utexas.edu Originator: jmaynard@thesis1.hsch.utexas.edu A friend has been recently given a Northern Telecom 585 computer, with several terminals, printers, and other peripherals. There's only one problem: It was a county's data processing system, and they cleaned off the disk before they turned it loose. Neither he nor I have any idea as to what it is. He does have a couple of tapes, but no manuals. Anyone out there know just what this beastie is? -- Jay Maynard, EMT-P, K5ZC, PP-ASEL | Never ascribe to malice that which can jmaynard@thesis1.hsch.utexas.edu | adequately be explained by stupidity.
