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. - --- Opus-CBCS 1.12 * Origin: Glacier Peak Rainbow, Bellevue, WA - 206/644-8431 (1:343/3.0) ------------------------------ Date: 11-24-90 (21:53) To: ALL Subject: RAINBOW 100+ FORSALE From: GEOFF REED 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.

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 .

Darcos & Company P O Box 70970 Washington, DC 20024-0970 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. - --- Opus-CBCS 1.14 * Origin: Silver Bullet - Silver Spring, Md - 301-622-2247 (1:109/417.0) ------------------------------
