• Please review our updated Terms and Rules here
  • From now on we will require that a prefix is set for any items in the sales area. We have created regions and locations for this. We also require that you select a delivery option before posting your listing. This will hopefully help us streamline the things that get listed for sales here and help local people better advertise their items, especially for local only sales. New sales rules are also coming, so stay tuned.

Free for shipping (should ship in a small USPS Priority flat rate box). This is a small board with software that I picked up from Rancho many years ago. I don't know if it was ever more than a prototype. Card has 2 DB25 connectors (one male and one female), so it's designed as a pass-through for printer use. On the card is a NS8477 FDC, a 16KB RAM, and a anonymous (no label) large QFP and a few random bits. There's a 4-pin (floppy type) power connector and the usual 34 pin male header for the floppy drive. Software (IIRC DOS) is on a 3.5" floppy that I'll include. It was interesting, worked okay, but I didn't find it interesting, so I put it aside for 30 years. Looks like it was intended to go into a half-height 5.25" enclosure. USA only, please.
