We have a great offer from Bernd for an ex-WMC Alpha Micro so we will have some servicable AM100 S100 boards in order to get Murphy computing again. Cameron has blogged the Friday work to clean and load test the PSU: http://blog.cp.yi.org/2006/05/28/#resurrecting-murphy-1 But AIUI there was additional hardware installed or UCC-brewed for various I/O that would be good to view; not necessarily to run again but to form at least a photographic record of the cards and their capabilities. If anyone knows old guard people who aren't subscribed, but may have some information, we'd appreciate passing the request along to them. Further work on Murphy and coordination of access to Bernd's machine is expected to be post-exams so in about four weeks time. All the best Harry McNally ------ End of Forwarded Message
