[intel-devsys] ISIS diskettes in the UK

[Herbert Johnson]

Someone in the UK contacted me as follows:

ISIS SYSTEM INSTALLATION
FOR NDS-II / SERIES-IV
part no 114193-005 version 1.2
DS/DD (5.25-inch)
Intel Corporation 1975.82,83

is one of the labels. So, if someone in the UK is interested in
receiving these disks in order to archive them (read them off, image
them) and for their own use, please contact me privately. Then I'll pass
your email address to my contact and they can contact you directly for
details.

Regards Herb Johnson

Hello Herb

It's no surprise that the owner of the disks found your website - and I'm glad to know your contact in UK did so.

I'll be happy to image the disks and report back to the owner. He/(she) can choose to receive back the set of disks, or may allow me to pass them to the Cambridge museum.

Martyn Vale is the only Series IV owner in UK that I'm aware about.

The set of disk images for the Series IV on Bitsavers.org already has an IMD image of the one whose label you quoted.

Best regards

Jon
