H88 and H8 on eBay

[Les Bird]

I've scene quite a few H8's lately on eBay. Also looks like an H88
with a Double Density controller card is up there too.

There is an H8 on ebay for parts (item 220504083750). I was thinking
about bidding on it but I already have 1 at home. Just wanted another
one to play with and buy some of Les' boards ;-). If someone NEEDS this
this because they have NONE let me know that and I will hold off until
next time.

I just looked at that and I might go for it, mine is still not working
and maybe between the two I can make one work..

[Les Bird]

Just to add here I'm bidding on the H88 with the Double Density controller
card. If someone else is bidding on it then I'll pass.

Oh, I forgot to mention that I'll be adding 3 sets of my H8-2000 PCBs up
there soon (in the next few hours).

now but still has something like 5 days left.

Thanks Ron,

We'll see if there's any interest out there in new H8 boards.

Ever think of contacting blogs like Make and hackaday and informing
them of your work?

It gives them content to write about and it expans your audiance.

[Les Bird]

I never knew they existing. How do I contact them? What's their URL?

The idea is that you are pretty much making a homebrew version of a
classic/vintahe computer and upgrade/repair parts.

I think these are two good avenues to start.

Thanks Chris,

I'll check it out.

I would post your link on slashdot.org but honestly all that will
happen is you will get slashdoted (your web server will get over
loaded) and people will make stupid comments. I think what is best is
to contact these sources first and then link these places on slashdot.
They would appreciate the traffic and can handle it better.
