Making sure other people play nice and dont kill each other (and us) off in job lots is hardly empire building, particularly when you give them self determination under "play nice" rules. Think of it as having your older brother knock the **** out of you for torturing the cat." Gunner |

Actually this reminds me of something you said in another post. I
think you described yourself as a "scounger". What I'd like to do is nominate you for "Master Scrounger". Can I get a "second" to my nomination? I don't think I know many who would compare. I'll bet your place is a scrounger's heaven. dennis in nca Gunner Asch wrote: http://bakersfield.craigslist.org/tls/120346620.html Gunner "Pax Americana is a philosophy. Hardly an empire.

According to Gunner Asch :

Just be aware...that the ad states..."Updated to CNC"..thats a basic, out of the box, plain jane, vanilla BP early cnc.. I'm not so sure about that. Looking at the stepper motors and the control tower, it looks to me like perhaps a Series-I BOSS-5 or BOSS-6. It is certainly a bit newer than my BOSS-3 (Which was from 1975, IIRC). It is rather old. Expect the CPU to be an LSI-11, with a maximum memory (program and storage for the CNC code you're running) of 64K. I *think* that this one has a rigid ram, so you can't tilt the head at all.
