Zozo,

If you want to win that auction - let me know and I will bid for you - just let me know what your limit is. You can paypal me the money after the auction etc. (and if you dont pay I can always keep the items myself ;) :D )

Cheers

Other option is to swap for an auction in Hungary - would happily swap the software in the ebay auction for a fully working EP128 and disk drive from Budapest rather than using paypal !!

Guys,

Its rare enough that something for the Enterprise appears on ebay - and after bidding for some bits over the last weekend - maybe its worth looking at agreeing a policy where we decide who is bidding on something before hand to limit the total price. I dont mind paying for stuff - but seems a bit pointless if we are bidding against each other when we can all benefit?

Not sure how we can do it - but if anyone wants to suggest anything ???

Cheers

Great boxed EP64 on the UK eBay.

Hello Zozo! I did not quite win Sunday's eBay UK EP64 auction (item 270186142585),
despite a max of 212.50 UKP - it seems someone else was more desparate to find an
EP than I was. :D

However, I did win the auction for the schematics and documents. Thus, would you like
me to post you photocopies of all the items I receive? I have already offered to do the
same for the person who won the tapes auction (is that you Tricky?). I will be scanning
the docs for my site anyway, but thought perhaps you'd like some photocopies.

My hunt for an EP continues... will gladly swap a nice SGI for one! :D  (eg. Indy, Indigo2,
O2 or Octane)

Cheers! :)

Ian.

Ian,

Yup - it is me !!

Welcome to the site !! If your looking for an Enterprise - its worth keeping an eye on Vatera as quite a few come up for sale on there (although its in Hungarian) but I know a number of members on here end up buying them from ebay auctions all over Europe.

Will sort out the software for you when it arrives here. In the meantime there is a very good Enterprise emulator called EP32 - im sure some of guys on here can give you the details but I think there is a unix version?? (sorry im wintel).

Cheers

Thanks! In the meantime Tricky asked the seller, and he do photocopies to we :-)
My hunt for an EP continues...
See the Shockwav3's auction previously.
Or the EP64 on spanish Ebay.
Or offer a good price to me for a EP128+disk controller card :-)

As far as I know, EP32 is Win32-only. On the other hand, ep128emu does run on at least one unix platform, and may also have better emulation accuracy. However, compiling on SGI may still be problematic, but with some luck you could get the older version 1.6.1 to run (SDL and the GNU development tools are needed). The 2.x versions are more advanced, but have more dependencies, and would probably not work.

I won! 8-)   Happy me!!!

Despite wanting to find an EP for years, I don't know that much about the hw details
at this point. Do you have a page about the disk controller card? I am intrigued!

Cheers! :)
